Why does my g tube leak constantly? I have my g tube since I was about 9 or 19 and I never seen it leak as bad. Of course I have been on and off medications due to surgery in the past 4 years. My G tube has been changed twice in a space of a few days.

Is there any specfic reason as to a G tube leaking constantly? I have a g tube which was changed twice and it kept leaking. I have a G tube from 12 years ago. I wud bolus fee six times a day and let the feed go in within 20 minutes. Only time when I seen it leak as bad was when I was on medications after procedures?

@Chelseafc47 oops, actually, it isn't even surgery at all. There is no opening of any skin that isn't already open, aka the stoma....it's just replacement of a tube, which can be done at home.
My daughter has a G-tube, and i change it every 3months they say inbetween 3 to 6months! and u dont have to change the size to often, as long as it turns and looks like theres enough room! and theres a better connector then that, thers one thats right angle and it so easy! and it doesnt HURT to change it! my daughter is awake on the couch at home relaxing!
My heart goes out to patients with a g tube, my 2month old son just had an operation to get one placed today, it's heartbreaking seeing ur child go thru such an ordeal but such a relief that the tube will help him get the nourishment he needs. Thanks for posting the video, now I get a clearer picture of what to expect with my child :)
i have a cousin with muscular dystrophy and he just got one of these. he said he has a lot more energy now.. thanks for posting the video, i was curious as to what these actually are. My heart goes out to those that need this, but I'm thankful that it's there to help you.. You are all real troopers.

Hello. You are very welcome. Normally they do not sedate a child to resize or change a button. Reanna was having another procedure that required sedation and I requested to have this done at that time for convenience.
Thanks for this vid. My daughter needs to get hers sized because she keeps popping the buttons and the Mic-Key (we have gone through six or more in the last three months). I didnt know how they went about sizing them.
my grandmother had her tube feeder inserted through he nose...
