Exercise affecting band!?

Hey

I know i probably sound dumb right now, but i was wondering, does moving around quickly, for example runniing or doing aerobics or even doing stomach work affect the band at all? has anyone ever heard of this happening?

I've heard it can when you're still in the healing stage but after you're all healed and eating normally I would think it should be fine. Ask you doc :thumbdown:

Hi:

I haven't found anything that would be uncomfortable about exercising and my port and band. However, after a lengthy exercise session I find that my band can be pretty tight. I usually have to drink something, and then wait an hour before eating anything if I've been exercising more than an hour straight.
