Siezures during and after gtube surgery.

[Guest guest]

I was just thinking when I was reading some earlier posts. has

tonic/clonic seiuzures. Mostly during sleep or when he is tired. He lifts his

left leg in and bends forward. Sometimes I think he is going to crack a rib or

his sternum because he bends in so hard. What effect will this have on a new

feeding tube???? His stomach is definately affected during the siezures.. as by

that I mean it gets real tense like the rest of his body.. Could that cause

some kind of stomach contents to push up or out the tube? Or what could happen

if he has once of these during surgery? I'm asking the doctor tomorrow but of

course, I wanted to ask the experts first!
