I’m happy to have the bracelet, even though my penicillin allergy is not as bad as some other allergies!

Makes me feel safe! 6 years ago

I bought a bracelet on Ebay, but I just have to wait for it to get here!

Lets hope I don’t get hit by a car and get amnesia before it arrives and I get it engraved! 6 years ago

I really want to get my penicillin allergy listed on a medical alert bracelet. My first aid teacher told us that a lot of times people can come into contact with stuff like that at the hospital or emergency room if the docs don’t know.

I will also get my name put on it incase I don’t have my wallet and I can’t tell them who I am (if I’m in an accident or something). I’m also considering putting my bloodtype on there, but I guess that’s a little crazy since they can just test it if they need to know… ;) 6 years ago

Still weaning onto lamictal so can’t get it yet – going back and forth – maybe info in a wallet would suffice. 6 years ago

Plus, I’ve gotten two compliments on my nice new bracelet, and then compliments on how smart it is to have it. Yay for feeliing secure! 7 years ago

I’m so proud. In a few weeks I will be the proud owner of a Medic Alert ID card and a lovely silver bracelet that tells people that I am seizing because I am an epileptic, not a drug addict, and that if they try to give me a CAT scan, I will probably die. Yay for advanced warning! 7 years ago

I just need to figure out exactly what drugs I am going to be on consistently before I get one. It’s sort of pointless to have a bracelet that just reads “Epileptic.” Duh. If a stranger sees me have a seizure, I think they could probably assume that. 7 years ago

I’ve been going back and forth on this one and I’m torn. At this point I’m not willing to shell out all that money for a bracelet that I don’t really want. So no. Maybe when I get a better job. 7 years ago

I didn’t realize it was such a process…I thought you just had to go to the drug store and get one. But you have to get a form, and fill it out, chose a design, send it away…it’s bad enough that I NEED one, it shouldn’t be this much work. 7 years ago
