Hi Michelle,

I too was very aprehensive about having the feeding tube removed. At that time I didn't know about The Oral Cancer Foundation and went to a hosiptal to have it removed. The fear of the unknown was much worse thaI had not sedation or anything and it took less than five minutes. n the removal. It was removed so quickly and painlessly that I didn't realize it was gone until I was told not to lift anything heavy for the next few weeks. Good Luck, Hacklene
