Who's got a Road ID out there? Wrist, Ankle, shoe pouch?
What do you have on it? Do you have RNY - No NSAIDs on there?

I'm ordering one and am just trying to figure out what kind of stuff to put on there other than the basic name & emergency #'s stuff...

Thanks guys!!

I have one, I love it.

Name D.O.B.
Home contact info
wifes cell phone
RNY No blind NG tube.

I think NSAIDS are pretty trivial when it comes to the list of concerns.
Dr. at support group talked about them today.  He said you aren't going to get an ulcer from a couple nsaids, it's the daily use of them that will cause problems.

I'd be more concerned with real allergies or medications you take that might have a conflict with something else.

I've got a medical ID bracelet - one side has my name, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and my surgeon's name. The other side has my surgeon's name and phone number, and then four more emergency numbers.

I have the Road ID, the wrist one.  It's got my name, DOB, home phone, wife's name and cell phone, No known allergies, and gastric bypass-RNY.
