Hated mine, but there was no way I coulda eaten for about 4 weeks with the level of mucositis and excess saliva I achieved. It would have hurt too much and triggered a lot of vomiting....

For me a peg did contribute a small level of discomfort every time my stomach was empty the sucker started moving around. Couldn't sleep longer than four hours.
