Alex wants me to ask a question. He has noticed a clear fluid which sometimes trickles from the site where his PEG was removed.

The PEG has been gone for 12 months and he has a rather deep dimple at the site. He has complained a number of times about a clear fluid which is not smelly or otherwise scary that sometimes leaks out of the dimple.

When he first mentioned it, I thought it was water that got trapped when he showered or sweat that collected through the night but Alex doesn't think so. We now know for sure it is not trapped water from the shower as he has been very careful in drying the area and it happens anyway. He complains it is enough leakage to seep through his T-shirt and leave a 20c size mark. We are just coming to the end of winter and Alex doesn't think it is sweat either.

It is obviously not anything to do with leaking stomach contents which would stink to high heaven and the scar appears closed and clean.

Any ideas?
