Does anyone wear one? If so' date=' where did you get it, and what does it say?[/quote']

I had actually just posted this in the April month. I am going to get one. I've found some on amazon u can purchase and have engraved. Walmart apparently has some as well and u can google and many sites come up u can order for.

I heard this was a good idea, but do you know why?

In case of intubation for one reason

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 got mine from laurens hope. Lots of nice ones on there. Mine says no blind ng tube, no NSAIDs, asthma, gb rny, and latex allergy.

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
