I had a nutritionist appointment on Monday and I am finally on stage five the life long stage of learning what I can eat again and what I cant. My nutritionist told me it would be a good idea to get medical bracelet. So instead of the bracelet I got dog tags. I am a massage therapist and I cant wear any jewelry to work. But just wanted to know has anyone else told to get a medical id bracelet. I actually had to get two dog tags because of the rny and all my allergies and asthma.

Show you what I put on one dog tag......

RNY GASTRIC BYPASS
FEBRUARY 3RD 2009
NO BLIND NG TUBE
NO NSAIDS
IF NEEDED USE PPI'S

Don't know if everyone needs one but my nutritionist told me because if I ever get ill and pass out its good to have on me and if they try to put a tube down my throat they will keep pushing and pushing and nothing will happen. So just wanted to know if anyone else was told this. Oh yeah I got two cards as well saying I can order off the kids menu. Go figure I started to laugh it was kind of funny.
