Can you slip your band by throwing up?

okay i got some steak stuck a few days ago and had to go into the bathroom and i threw up, all of it, concerned that i caused the band to slip, mess it up, did some damage etc. How would i know if i did mess something up. I was banded july 24 and have had 2 fills. Any advice would be great, thanks much

There's throwing up with stomach acids like with a stomach virus, and then there's what some banders call a PB (productive burp). That's when just the offending food comes back up in pretty much the same condition as it went down. Regardless, I don't think one time would cause a slip. I've talked to my doctor about what I should do if I ended up with a stomach virus with vomiting. He said if it last more than 24 hours to come in for an unfill. I also have a prescription medication to hopefully prevent vomiting.
