Chiropractors? Will this damage the band/port?

[Guest alohasuzi]

Hi, everyone! I was banded on 8/23/07 and have recently started back to my regular exercise schedule (including ab work). I also went to the chiropractor this past week. I'm having some pain and I can't tell if it's just from not having worked the abs for 3 long months or if I damaged something by going to the chiropractor and getting my lower back cracked?! Does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone else gone to the chiropractor since getting banded? I'd appreciate the help! Thanks, Suzanne

Your question is a bit medically oriented and probably better suited for your doctor. Either your chiropractor or the doctor who did your banding should be able to handle this.

I go to a Chiropractor regularly, but made sure he was aware of the band. He doesn't feel there is any problem, but I would check with your doctor to be sure. There are one of two forms of adjustment he doesn't use because of the band.
