If you get too busy too fast, you can relapse and need a few weeks off to recover. Do not push your return to work. Just because you can work 2 hours and feel good does not mean you can keep working. The fatigue will have a delayed reaction.

So, go to work for a few hours and when you get home, keep the rest of the day easy. It will be much easier to go slow than have to make up for overdoing it.

My best to you.
