Hi,
Stumbled upon this forum when searching for tips for cleaning my wife's PEG tube.
My wife is a cancer survivor that ended up with pancreatitis after receiving chemo (non-drinker; had to have old chemo that we, later, found out had a side affect of giving people pancreatitis ).
Anyway, she ended up with a PEG tube to, hopefully, bypass the pancreas, for tube feeding. She's had trouble getting a doctor to change her tube, so I'm just trying to get as much info as possible insofar as things for keeping it clean.
Saw that people have found places for these brushes, so was just wondering if y'all could send some links for me?
Thanks much
Glenn
