After some waiting I had the PEG insertion this afternoon. I have to say I was a lot more aware of what was going on than I would have liked, but it was brief and is now over.
Moving around is very painful, especially getting up off the bed. I have managed to drink water and eat a baked potato, and had some water through it so all seems well.
Once it has healed it doesn't seem like it will be too obtrusive. I still expect to celebrate the day it finally comes out though!
Sadly the gentleman in the corner seems to be gearing up for another night of shouting at the nurses so it may not be a very restful one again.
