Spinal cord stimulator recovery- Is 10 days enough time?

I am having a spinal cord stimulator implanted in a couple of weeks. My surgeon is only having me take 10 days off from work. I am concerned that 10 days is not enough time and that I will still be in pain. My job is not strenuous but I am constantly moving getting up and down. I had a considerable amount of pain during the trial and I am sure this will be a lot more pain. how much time did you take off. I know that I will have restrictions for about 6-8 weeks. Thanks for your help!
