Recommended Posts

sleevemode, look under men's medical ID on Ebay, Amazon, or google for various jewelry sites who sell it.

This is my first post here...been lurking for years...

I got a tattoo on my belly, in bright colors where no-one will miss it that says "partial gastrectomy"

I don't do jewelry...the tattoo is permanent and I can't forget to wear it....

My bf suggested a tattoo. I've been thinking about designing one for my wrist, where a medic alert Bracelet would go.

I'm still in my planning stages, but it will likely be a blue star of life with VSG inscribed internally, and No Blind NG/No NSAID around the perimeter. I do have a keychain on the way, but this way, I would have something on my body that couldn't fall off/be overlooked.

Just FYI everyone, I chose to have "Gastrectomy patient" inscribed on my necklace instead of "VSG" or "vertical sleeve". Unless you are in the bariatric world, you may not know what these are....none of my EMT or nurse friends knew. All medical personnel will understand what a gastrectomy or partial gastrectomy is.

This is mine....

Again, I have to ask, what do the guys wear? Are men also walking around wearing these bracelets and necklaces? Anyway, I need to check with my surgeon. I've honestly never heard of anyone with any medical condition wearing anything like this in the country I live in, so I don't know if emergency responders would even know to look.

I've seen some online that look like those plastic bracelets athletic men wear. Go online and shop around.

@@Mrs.RRn will ER staff look at a "pretty bracelet" to see that there's a medical alert on it?

Good question!

Yes, we would be more likely to overlook it if it looks like a pretty beaded Bracelet.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
