recovery time/mastectomy/lattimus flap

I am going to have a mastectomy and then immediate reconstruction (I know I am not spelling this correctly, but it's the lattimus dorsal flap with skin sparing mastectomy - they told me it's a new procedure involving using the outer skin from the breast, inserting an implant, and then taking some skin from my side). Does anyone know how long the recovery time is from both these procedures (or a similar procedure if not the exact same thing). I'm wondering when I can go back to work (I just sit and talk to people: I'm a social worker). Ohilly
