I went back to work 8 wks after my surgery. Worked 20hrs for two weeks then hit it full time.
I was considered as having a "high" bearing job ( meaning it was pretty physical) but nothing near the physical job as roofing.
I think your surgeon probably will not give you a definite time frame because everyone heals at a different pace. My surgeon took xrays to check my progress at recovery. Good luck!
