P.E.G.

Can anyone add to the message I posted six months ago? I did get some helpful comments then but wonder if anyone else has now had to undergo a P.E.G? I am booked to go back to Neuro Unit at the end of May and just know they will go on about my weight. I have not managed to put any on but on the other hand I have not lost any and stayed at seven and a half stone for about a year!! They want me to be eight and a half stone. No chance. I am still very reluctant to have a P.E.G. and really do not think it will benefit me. Does anyone have any comments to add to what was discussed previously? Please let me know. thank you.
