I was just rereading this and realize I left something out. I used a very huge syringe -- without the plunger -- to pour things into my PEG tube. Plugged the end of the syringe into the PEG, then poured the water or water w/meds right in. Held the end of the PEG up, and let gravity do the work. Maybe because I flushed that thing many times a day in my effort not to become dehydrated, my PEG never got plugged up, so I never needed the plunger. The syringe served as a big funnel. Hope this helps somebody.
