I have a question to all the Mickey users...

Where is your Mickey located? If going from a PEG tube to the Mickey is placed in the same tube site? For some odd reason I was always under the impression the PEG or J/G tubes were located near the center of a patients abdomen. I dont know why but I always thought of the Mickey located slightly off center, more like a couple inches to the side.

Thanks in advance for any replies smile
