My doctors have bein talking to me about this for a while and she thinks its a great idea even though clinic for me was today and i gained 3 pounds!?! She says it would help with my height and weight(im 4'8 and 71 pounds). But i cant stand the idea. Now they're basiclly making me get one. I cant stand having something stick out of me, i also would quit hockey(i know people say you can play sports, but i dont feel comfortable with it there)I would have nothing to do and would just sit around the house. Anybody got any info on gtubes or reviews on them?

Check out a few of the things I've posted in the adult thread.

I got mine a week ago and I LOOOVE it. Its nothing like I thought it would be. They placed a PEG button so that I wouldn't have a tube hanging out for 8 weeks. Its very tiny and with a tight shirt on you could barely see it.

Its honestly not bad, and I feel SOO much better.

You are at a point in your life were you need the extra so you can grow. I would say get it, gain and grow...and ya know what my doc said -you can always take it out of you don't like it.

But def try it out.

I second everything JbrandonAW said!
As far as the sports...Well, I got my PEG in January (instead of the PEG button, i had the actual peg tube)...it wasn't thatttt bad. You can tape it to yourself and that helps, but I wasn't comfortable running the track for a little while. When you get the button, its soooooo much nicer. You won't have to quit hockey and you will be comfortable with it, once you see how durable it is.

Good luck! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

You will be sore for a few weeks, But its not that bad. After a while you will not even notice its there. You will not have to qiute hockey if you get it now you will be GTG by the time hockey season getts here. I have been hit hard in mine and it doesnt affect it, you can do anything a normal person can do.

Please condider it if you do need it.I know its a horrible idea right now but after you get it you will enjoy it and gain weight and feel good. It will tale stress off of you to get in the 4000 calories we are supposed to have, you can do night feeds and get in 2,000 so you are half way there while you sleep.
