No blind ng tubes. When we were taught in nursing school to put them in we were showed a way to measure and that particular way is not accurate for a person that's had bariatric surgery and a pouch. If u were in a accident and they decided to try to put in tubes it could be a hazard and maybe cause internal bleeding.

I caution people about putting no sugars. I put that on nine and now don't wear mine because of that statement. Many of us have hypoglycemia of one sort or another. Sugar may revive you
