Feeding tube

Had an appointment with a Dietician earlier today. They discussed how I may need a feeding tube they mentioned PEG or some other type but can't remember the term used. So just wondering if anyone has any experience with feeding tube

I used to be a carer. You heard right. They were taking about Peg feeding. Which is a port into your stomach that you attach feeding bags to. I have swallowing difficulties so may need this in the future to

@NathanCharge that's part of my issues to. On thickened fluids but food wise finding things more difficult and Dietcian advised I'm not getting enough daily calories and advising they'd rather do it now than shock me with it being fitted. I also used to be a carer more for people with mental health diagnoses.
