Shelleymb 75 Posted March 26, 2013 How long until I can swim? I feel like it's inch a silly question to call the clinic about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted March 26, 2013 I was told 6 weeks. I had the band the end of July, live in a condo with a pool and couldn't use the pool. That sucked. Call your doctor because every one of them has different rules. If you have other questions, make a list. How are you feeling? 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
