Living alone, how long after getting RP can I be on my own?

Our mate Survivor's the man to ask.
He popped down the road in his lunch break to have his prostatectomy, hopped back on his bike a couple of hours later, rode back to work & carried on life like nothing happened.
Seriously, though... you'll get great information here.
Good luck.

That kind of feels like an insult but I'm not sure.
I did NOT have an easy recovery but I didn't need two weeks for it either. I'm still recovering but I stopped needing someone to assist after a few days, I was able to do it myself. I'm 54, in good health and spent 4 months preparing for this recovery so maybe I was back in the mix sooner than some but I don't look down my nose at people who need longer to convalesce.
And I won't be riding my bike until late summer, as per doctors recommendations - although I got a new seat that has no perineum nose on it so that I could try anyway.
