Hi janette,
Yes, it took a while to get use to the peg. Should of had it done earlier really, as I lost quite a Bit of weight. Which is proving hard to put back on.
Love Sheila

Welcome to the Forum, Janette.

I see Terry has lectured you already about eating safely, so I won't have to

I still eat what I can safely enjoy and use my feeding tube for my main nutrition and almost all my fluid intake.

Just because you have a tube doesn't stop you from doing a "Pick n Mix" Woolies special on how you get your calories and fluids!!

Has your tube site fully healed now and is behaving?

Take care.

Love Ellie.

Hi Ellie, I’ve adapted my way of eating quite well, just get bad days now and again, yeah my tube fully healed now it took its time though I’m not sure if it’s because they discovered hiatus hernia while they were doing the procedure love janette

Hi Nettie,

Bitting your lips and tongue is one of the pleasures of Mnd, especially when sneezing. I do manage to close my teeth before a sneeze sometimes which can work.

If you getting tired when eating you are more likely to make mistakes.

See your dietitian to get some back up and have smaller portions and enjoy your food. Sometimes having smaller amounts of hot food is less dounting and then maybe have seconds that are reheated.

Love Terry

Hi Terry, it is so exhausting to eat sometimes but enjoy taste, but on days like today when I bite my tongue when sneezing it’s so painful will have a word with dietician about supplements thanks love Janette

Hi Janette,

I have had a PEG for about five years and have have found it useful for hydration when rough. Keep eating but maybe have easier to eat meals and smaller ones more often.

Don't tire yourself out eating, you can still eat some of the things you like and supplement using the peg.

Love Terry
