Guest guest Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Just wanted to post some good news. I do believe the new AMT mini button that was " installed " last Thursday is the answer to my long-time tube problems. The pain caused by the old tube and the first Mic-Key button are gone. Every day my belly feels better and better. I am ecstatic! I can sit up without tube pain! The pressure sore that had formed under the Mic-Key button in just 3 weeks of use is quickly healing and the granulation tissue, new and old, has disappeared. I am so glad I kept searching for answers, even though it took nearly 3 years to get here. Both surgeons told me that all tube patients have pain and there's nothing you can do about it. I knew this was not true from reading the posts in my tubefeeding support group and that knowledge kept me searching. I learned about the AMT mini button from members of the tube group and also from here in Mitoldies and then persuaded my surgeons to let me try it. While it may not be the answer for everyone, it works for me. Cheers! Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
