Band Slip?

[tlel 1]

Can your band slip before your first fill?I am 6 weeks post op and was digging out the driveway and was careful not to lift to much snow at a time. And i am super PARANOID about a slip. I feel fine just curious if i would know if i messed up.

Hosework will not make your band slip.... no worries.

I doubt you did any damage. We had a big snowstorm one week post my lap band and I had the "brilliant" idea that I would go back to work even though I knew my supervisor would be ok with me taking an extra day off due to the snow and I dug myself out. I did not do any damage, I had a barium swallow a few weeks later because my doc checks band placement at that time and there was no problem.

You would know if your band slipped because suddenly you can't keep anything, even Water, down. At least, that's what my doc. said when I asked him. I don't think you have anything to worry about.
