When in doubt, call you doctor. It could be that you are still irritated from your PB depending on how bad it was. Considering that you are concerned, by all means call your doctor. It will settle your mind if it is nothing, and it will give you an opportunity to fix the problem if there is one.

If you can keep down liquids and soft foods, you most likely do not have a slipped band. Your doctor should have someone available for emergencies. Call him/her.

I've PB'd a hundred times and my band is quite healthy. I'm sure you're absolutely fine.

FYI, boiled eggs (or eggs in any form) and rice cause many people problems. Keep this in mind as you get your fills.

i had rice and eggs because i am a vegetarian and my doc includes these in mushy food for a vegetarian

I always pb on rice once I hit my sweet spot. It clumps too much. This makes me a little sad because I miss sushi, lol. Oh well . . . that's banded life for ya. My worst day banded still beats my best day heavy hands down.

A really rough pb will make me sore and uncomfortable for a couple of days. The most important thing is to not pb again on top of it. It doesn't sound like a slip to me either if you can get things down, but I am not a doctor by any means.

However, I have learned the hard way that if you are not feeling comfortable, you need to go back to liquids/mushies until you feel decent again . . . otherwise your stomach irritation can just get worse and lead to more pb's and discomfort, sometimes to the point of needing an unfill to get back on track again.
