How long should i wait before going back to skydiving after a breast reduction?

colette169
I am 5 weeks post op now, and healing very well. But i am keen to get my self back in the sky. My doctor did say 6 weeks, but i was just wondering if any other doctors have a different opinion. I don't want to cause any unnecessary set backs to my healing process.
