the reason for having it is.. if something happens they medical teams cannot give you NSAIDS nor instert a tube into your stomach blindly so they don't puncture it. They have to see your stomach on a screen now that it is smaller.


I’m not really that concerned with the nsaids, but I was never told I couldn’t have a tube in my stomach. To each their own, but I don’t think I’ll be getting a Med Bracelet.

I have a tag on my keychain with the doctors information as well as a “Nomination” type Bracelet with the appropriate medical ID links on it.

No BLIND NG tube, NO NSAIDS.

Was it similar to the one from Amazon Prime? $16.99 sounded like a reasonable👜 price to me.

No, I got it from Lauren's Hope. They have a huge selection and custom engraving. Pricey, but nice!

Hello!
Im not sure if anyone has started a topic on this yet, and I’m new here, but I was wondering what everyone’s views on the Medical Alert ID was? Some say we should absolutely have it, others say no.
What do you all think?
I'm thinking of getting one

Ladylike, beautiful but still carries the message. Pricey but I do LIKE IT. Going to talk to Dr Needleman Tuesday about expected duration of PICC in my arm, if it is longer than years end, I'm ordering that on there also. See it might be interesting that they can use the 2nd lumen for IVs, no more having to look for an accessible vein to start in..
But at very least,i should qualify on basis of RnY by itself, yeah?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
