Have had both done, the second only 3 months ago. Very quick recovery (4 weeks). Stick to the exercise regime but DO NOT push yourself too hard . Your body will tell you, believe me! Down to surgical skill as well as a friend had his done a week after mine and was out for 7 weeks with heavy bruising as well.
Had both of mine under sedation/epidural so no GA was a definite bonus.
Swimming is great for preparation and recovery.
