Medic Alert ID
Hi Everyone,
I am new to the Ontario Forum. I am in the pre-op phase of this journey. While I am getting things rolling I was wondering if any of you or all of you ordered a medic alert bracelet or necklace. I can't remember if it was mentioned at orientation at TEGH or not and I have ssen mention of it on USA forums.
Thanks for the input. A bit of information overload to say the least!!!

Sent referral July2010 to HRRH, Info session Dec 2,2010, Meeting with surgeon Jan26/11,Feb2/11 GBC/Dt/SW/(Dr Glazer) Mar 23/11, Surgery 04/05/11, 10 lbs below goal!
Medic Alert has some really nice ones. As you register with them there is also and contact ID# for more of your med history. Only thing there is an annual charge. I like the crystal ones and you can also change the braclet so it looks more like jewlery.
Just in case you don't end up with RNY maybe waiting until after surgery is better?? Just a thought.
