Kathy,
I was told 6 weeks with my ADR. I waited at least that until I felt comfortable. With this fusion I waited about 5 weeks and used a plastic bag to slide in easily on the seat. Definitely wait until you are comfortable because you have to twist more than you think. I just started with short drives to the pharmacy. I am glad you are doing so well. Youa are almost there.
