Wow Thank you Christine. After going thru 4 G tubes in a year, I have become somewhat overprotective of my G-tube. I really miss swimming and will have to try out "press and seal". I couldn't get any answers from the Interventional Radiology doctors on this issue who put in all my G-tubes as apparently none of this is taught in medical school. Only how to put them in and take them out.
