FW: RE: Medic Alert/Written Records

[Guest guest]

Hi again grads:

A not-quite-a-grad was kind enough to send me this information privately,

and--with her permission--I'm posting it, because I think it's a good

reminder. I've been threatening to do this for ages, and I know I should!!!

Staci =)

Hi Staci,

You might also want to investigate getting a Medic Alert bracelet, since you

are less likely to be separated from that in an emergency. I tried to get

one online, but they didn't have the options for wls, so I just called their

toll-free number (). I'm getting one that says " Roux en Y, NG

with endoscopy, no NSAIDS " or something like that. If you call, the operator

will probably know exactly what it should say. I think there is also an

option for adding info about medications.

BTW, I'm sending this to just you, since I haven't even had the surgery yet

(less than two weeks to go!), so can't post to the Graduate list. I lurk and

learn like crazy though!
