Why is there such controversy about the PEG? If it helps one get through treatment and get on with life, then it is a good thing. Let us please drop this "good PEG, bad PEG" bulls*#@...Why must those who don't believe in it make it an issue? Isn't there enough that the OC patient, caregivers, and families have to deal with regarding this horrific disease? Is this a contest to see who's better--PEG users vs. non-PEG users?
