15Kgold 22 Posted September 7, 2012 Does anyone have a med alert Bracelet? Might be a good idea in case there is some type of emergency. What do you think? I would hate for someone to put a feeding tube down and ruin my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CraftyV 61 Posted September 7, 2012 I just ordered mine yesterday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chilihot59 156 Posted September 7, 2012 I will be ordering one today from Laura's Hope. Not just because of my sleeve and NG insertion issue, but, also due to allergies and another medical condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doxieville 799 Posted September 7, 2012 I need to get an updated one now that i have the sleeve. Mine is from MedAlert and is ancient. What's Laura's Hope? And what exactly are you putting on your braclete for the sleeve? Somehow I think 'The Sexy Sleeve' isn't appropriate. :-) Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chilihot59 156 Posted September 7, 2012 I apologize, it's Lauren's Hope. It's part of a company that makes very stylish medical alert jewelery for women, men, children. I, stumbled upon this company via another site. Jewelery is one of my weaknesses. They have such a wide variety and beautiful designs. I'm having info re: pre-exsiting medical conditions, allergy, no blind NG, and gastric sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyLynn 30 Posted September 7, 2012 I had asked this too, here: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/51371-medical-id-tag-or-braceleti/ I ended up ordering one from Lauren's Hope yesterday, here: http://www.laurenshope.com/ They have very nice pieces. A bit costly, I spent $80. But I figure it will last a long time, has a chain that can be changed and it is a good thing to have. I can't wait to get it in!

init4me 45 Posted September 7, 2012 I got mine the other week. It has my name, ICE # , that I had Gastric Sleeve done 6/12, no n/g tube, no sugar, no nsaids and that I'm diabetic. I really feel it's important to have one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
