I am curious to know if there are any runners on here, that have had surgery; and from that, how long you waited post-op to put your running shoes back on.

My PS said 3-4 weeks depending on how comfortable I am with the motion; and to keep my garment on for the first while.  Is this consistent with others' experience?  Last thing I want is to impact the results of the surgery...

From what I hear, the internal blood vessels are all healed up by weeks 3-4, so I'm sure it will be okay to let your blood pressure come up after that time.  I would still run with the garment on though.
