G-Tube/Mic Key

My son has had a g-tube for over 10 years. We have always had a Mickey except for one year he tried the Baird because of it's lower profile. It leaked constantly so we had to put 'washers' underneath it (so much for the lower profile) Then once my son had the Baird removed he said never again It hurt like ^*## he said. He changes his button every 3 months. It just popped this past weekend after only one month. The Dr's think it's because of his meds. He too is on Prevacid.
