thanks yep still in the hospital 10 days already and looks like a few more to go. I did not realize that getting a PEG meant no food for the nrxt 24 hours plus I don:t have a foof tube< I my Peg is connected to a urinal drainage bag that fills up with very ugly looking stomach secretions. While it may be a CCC, Gerogrtown University Hospital is a hellhole,. I will never set foot here again. I just had my speech and swallowing therapy prescription transferred out to Inova Seminary in alexandria VA. NO explanations or warnings that instead of feeding me, it;d be draining me. Plus I was 137 lbs when I checked in and they never weighted me, so my son tonite figured out how to operate this hi tech bed scale and I am now down to 125 lbs at 5'11". Guess I will need to use the PEG heavy duty oh yeah and after this shitty nursing care I am going to enjoy an alcohol buzz
