Has Anyone Had A PEG Tube Installed In The Stomach For Feeding?
My mom has Parkinson’s and has reached the point where swallowing is causing too much choking and risk. The team of doctors she sees has suggested the PEG tube with stomach insertion. I’m looking for information for someone who has had it done. I’ve done a major amount of google searches but would like a personal view.
When I was a care giver I had several clients with peg tube's the only problem I ran into was family seem to forget oral hygiene. They get the nourishment they need
Big DNR in place here.
I was considered a potential recipient but once I developed respiratory failure no one would take the chance. The risk was too high, especially with aDNR in place.
