  • Hi  

    well done do far

    Your dieticians won’t let you lose your PEG till your weight is stable without using it. So don’t worry. 
    Mucous… mine went as quickly as it came some time after 12 weeks. 
    In the  meantime I found fizzy Diet Coke or ginger ale were good at shifting it. That and spitting a lot.
