Should I tell people at work? Will I get fired for taking this time off to recover?
If you choose to tell people at work, it is your business. Do not feel that you must, it is none of their business. However, if you choose to tell your boss (or coworkers) you are having female surgery, or whatever pops into your head, do know you have to stick with that story. PLUS if you are found to be lying, you can be held accountable.
Many women tell their bosses or take their deserved and vacation time off and tell them absolutely nothing upon return. If you are worried about them being able to tell, work up to it with padded bras and Curves or have it during winter when big, bulky sweaters are common. If you wear suits it is easier to hide, although if you were significantly flat-chested be advised that hiding C's or D's or anything significantly more than you had before is going to be difficult.
