I've been peg fed as an adult for 10 years. My consultant won't allow me to have a Mic-key button because he thinks I'd accidentally pull it out with my wheelchair. I hate being tube fed but it is very comfortable and keeps me alive. I have water overnight and feed during the day. I use the same pump although it's differently branded as it's the European version.

I have a feeding tube- MIC-Key low profile for 27 years. I switched to a Mini One last year. I think it's even more low profile than the MIC-Key. I drink two cans of Vital 1.5 formula a day in between regular meals by mouth. I add Cocoa powder or berries so it doesn't taste bad.
I haven't had to use my tube for feeding for years.

I used to have a G-tube but got it out several years ago. I never got used to having it.

Once I was like in 7th or 8th grade I had a feeding tube and I had it cuz I couldn’t eat anything I threw everything up every time I’ll eat and I have a feeding tube through my nose and went down to my stomach and it hurts when it got removed it’s hurts even worst than putting it in my nose though my stomach now I’m in 11th grade and I don’t have the tube anymore.
