There are lots of people in the medical field that are not familiar with TN. Between the TN, drug allergies and the constantly changing medications, I bought a USB medical bracelet to wear. It allows me to change my medication dosages, list all of my doctors and give medical history all in one place. Since medical facilities are being forced to go electronic, I can actually update the bracelet from the doctor's offices that allow you to look up your medical information online. It can hold actual MRI's, X-Rays and other tests on it also. Because I live in a very populated area, I could easily be taken to one of a dozen hospitals if something ever happened and I couldn't give them the information verbally. By having all my information on this, they can access my history without having to track down where I might have been seen. This bracelet has the medical symbol on it and can be engraved if I choose to do so. I thought that this would be a good way to inform medical personnel without limiting it to the simple bracelets they use for diabetics or heart patients. It also gives more thorough information to them immediately. I have found that my doctors really like it when I see them, too. They can just pop open the file and update my information in their system very quickly. I just thought I would share this idea with everyone!
How much and where.?
