First, a belated welcome back to OCF. I hope you grace us with some of the clever wordplay and insights you put in your blog. You are luckt to be able to go to a gastro doc for your tube or button. I wish I could. So far I've gone to three different gastro docs and all three refused to change my tube saying that it could only be done in interventional radiology since it is not a PEG. ( worse, this put the kibosh on my efforts to get my wife to change it like in the You tube videos)
Ironic, I always hated PE in school and now the fact that my G tube was not PE (percutaneous endoscopic), really limits my options to just major hospitals (some small ones don't have an IR)for what is really just a routine procedure that thousands of mothers/caregivers do every day at home.
Hope you stay part of the OCF forum, you are a good writer At least let us know how your quest for the button turns out
Charm.
