    So many issues!

    Hey M,

    I had a feeding tube for 2 months. Nothing to it really. If I hadn't had it I would not have survived treatment. The only thing bad about it was the cumbersome part of feeding at night. Not uncomfortable just a little bothersome (hard to get comfortable). I was also able to take all of my meds through the tube which I think helped them get in my system alot quicker.

    I was 35 when I had the feeding tube put in and 35 when I had it taken out. Now, I am 37 and have just a little scar on my stomach that looks like an extra belly button. I don't plan on wearing any bikini's in the future so it doesn't bother me at all. During the time I had the tube, I would just tuck it in my pants..couldn't be seen...Really not a big deal. The procedure to have it put in was outpatient but I do recommend being anesthesized to have it taken out.

    Within just a few days of getting it, I felt better, I had more strength, and gained weight.

    I kept me hydrated, healthy and without pain...

    Hope this helps!!

    God Bless!!
