Hearts head coach Valdas Ivanauskas has been told by his doctor to spend more time recuperating before returning to his post.
The Lithuanian was expected to return to his role at Tynecastle next week after stepping down on October 23 due to health reasons.
However, Ivanauskas told the Edinburgh Evening News: "I am feeling better, but not 100 per cent. I'm not ready yet.
"I don't think I will be back as early as next week. I have a medical examination next Tuesday and I will know more after that.
"I could return after that, but I need the doctors' opinions. They say I am okay and looking good but we need time.
"My health is very important because it was so much stress last time. I hope my health improves soon and I hope then I can come back."
