Question Thymectomy recovery time

I was diagnosed with MG in March after having symptoms for over a year. My neurologist has told me that I can probably be scheduled for a thymectomy in about a months time. Because I don't have a thymoma, the surgeon is planning on a VATS for the thymectomy. To anyone that has this type of thymectomy: how long of a recovery period can I realistically expect?
