I agree with Christine that two years means time to replace it.
My feeding tube only lasts 5 months before it dislodges. Most patients average a year. Some button or low profile ones need to be changed every 90 days.
It varies a lot with how much you exercise, lift weights, etc. the more active you are, the more you need to change the tube
