I may have to respectfully disagree with you on this one Tom. I had a PEG for 9 months and never had an ounce of trouble with it, so it was obviously installed properly. If I was sitting in a chair or standing and I opened the end, the amount and time I had "eaten" last would determine if anything came out. If I were lying flat, usually nothing would come out even if I had just eaten. I never reclined to use the tube, I did it wherever I was at the time. In the car, cooking dinner in the kitchen, on the computer, etc. I plugged in the syringe, poured the food in the syringe and waited for it to go in. It got so I could put a can in my tube in under 5 minutes. I'm not suggesting this style to anyone, I hate to sit still so do most things on the go. But, I don't want everyone whose tube may leak to worry or wonder if it's installed properly.
Take care,
Minnie
