If I were out of work and recovering from surgery I don't think I'd be spending time trying to figure out how to get a date.

You sound like you don't like being alone. Do you have friends and hobbies?

Get healthy first. Most guys are not interested in a patient.

Live in FWB = disastrous ending....probably should focus on healing and get yourself a state of the art B.O.B. That piece of injected molded plastic and surgical silicone will be the boyfriend who always lives in the "honeymoon" phase. It's one thing to date someone who gets hurt, and another when you're already bed ridden and need to get one. Good luck scraping off the needy, clinger of a male, when he starts irritating you. Trouble is he lives with you....red flag alert

I agree. To the OP, you will be shredded verbally on this forum if you post a pic. Don't do it.

If she is hideous, or a blimp, then I don't think she would be "shredded", but seriously, a picture tells a thousand words. It could very well, maybe even probably is the PRIMARY reason the OP is having an issue meeting guys.

Any halfway attractive, fit woman will ATTRACT guys. They will GET DATES.

Will they be able to maintain relationships? Maybe not, but that is a DIFFERENT question completely.

OP, it's odd that you're posting about having difficulty meeting men while you're laid up from surgery and complications from surgery. Wouldn't you expect to have trouble meeting men when you're forced into a period of inactivity? Or were you posting more generally, about your social life before the surgery, with an eye to the future?

The usual advice for meeting guys is to join activities, clubs, groups, where you'll be participating in activities or classes with the same guys on a regular basis, and can get to know them informally, without either side having to worry about making an approach, like it's a big deal. You just get to know people casually and naturally, and they--you.

But it sounds like it will be awhile before you'll be able to try that.
this is the best advice. OP your health is more important than just about any relationship you can have. if the guy does not understand that, then he really wasnt into you in the first place.

so get well, then get back into the dating world.
