Let's see if it works this time ...
I had my surgery three weeks ago, ordered my med-alert bracelet through ebay a week or so ago and got it in the mail late last week. I've been wearing it since then. Mine looks more like a bracelet than a med-alert thing, but that's what I was looking for when I selected the style. It cost me $40. I was most grateful for the insights from this forum. Because of it, I knew what to put on it and where:
On the front it says: Gastric Bypass
No NG Tube
No NSAIDS
ON THE BACK IT SAYS
My First and last name
My middle name in parenthesis (which I go byO
My surgeon's name
My surgeon's phone number
Diane C
Diane,
Thanks so much for the info! I don't know what I would do without all of you on the site here and at the support meetings. I am so lucky to have access to those of you with experience. And I am grateful that you share everything you can with me!
I'm at my one week countdown -- Next Monday is surgery day -- I cannot believe it's finally here!
