In Case of Emergency....anything special we should know?

Surgery is next week and I’m making notes for the anesthesiologist because I’ll need a breathing treatment prior to going under and it occurred to me that I don’t know if there is specific information to provide on my medical records or to emergency contacts for reference post VSG.

I keep putting off getting a medical ID bracelet for some titanium in my neck and wonder if now is the time to get one and to add the surgery info too.

This forum has become a very trusted source of WLS information for me and think this will be good stuff to know for all of us nervous nelly newbies!
