PEG Tube Adjustment
Last night we had the fun adventure of checking out Lourdes Emergency Room. Mom was having some trouble with the PEG Tube (stomach feeding tube) and Dr. Carter told us to take her there where he would come by and look at it. After a few hours and miscommunication on behalf of the ER staff Dr Carter was finally paged and he was quickly there. He adjusted the tube, ordered her antibiotics as a precaution, a much needed pain medication injection and sent us home. By the time we got home she was feeling much better, mostly due to the pain medication. She had a quick snack and was off to bed.
