Generally 3-6 months will be an adequate guess. There's too much unsaid to give a close prognosis, yet it also depends on your dedication and will power to get better. Don't overdo it, either way. Be as active as you can, and get good nutrition, and with guided therapy, I think you will have a chance to get in shape fast. It all depends how your body heals.

Take calcium supplement (200mg x 2 tablets each time, twice a day) to strength your bone and hasten the recovery. Never in any case take more than 500mg of calcium each time at one go because it can cause plaque build-up in arteries.

The thing that concerns me is what are you doing to maintain your overall body strength? As you are in a body brace the muscles that normally do this function are getting weaker. To be able to start a job coming out of a brace is only asking for more problems. You are going to have to do strengthening exercises before you are finally out of the brace and before you return to work. Talk to your doctor about this. Big wheel, that is a good projection date.
