I remember when I got my PEG it was the same situation. They just sent me home with virtually no instructions. But I see from Margaret's signature line that the same thing happened to her as happened to me and that is the PEG came out of my stomach and was in my abdominal wall. I kept complaining but the doctors kind of acted like I was being a baby and I guess I didn't emphasize how much it hurt. So if it just doesn't feel right after a week or 10 days, make them x-ray it to make sure it is in your stomach. It sounds like yours must be since your food is getting into it - lol. My second feeding tube was a G-tube and although it was inconvenient there was really no pain involved with it after the incision healed.

By the way, where are you in Arizona? I'm in Mesa.
