my husband has dealt with PEG issues from clear back in August. The last time he was hospitalized, they put in a new one. He's been fine with the pain since but nausea is still an issue. He was told to take the nausea stuff before eating, at least 20 minutes. Of course, he takes them then and immediately adds formula to feeding tube and throws up. The things I've been told about nausea is that once it starts, it's hard to stop so you need to be on top of it. The feeding tube was truly the hardest part of this whole treatment plan for my husband besides his stubbornness to listen and do what he's been told to do.

Best wishes....
