I have a Type 1 diabetes tattoo on my wrist
I wear a regular gold ID bracelet that I had “DIABETES “ engraved on the backside. I got this before I learned that I had Type 1. I wish It was also there.
yes, I even need to update my data with a new bracelet
I recently ordered an engraved tag that fits on my Fitbit band. Since I wear the Fitbit every day it seemed the best option. http://www.roadid.com
I’ve worn it for so many years that I feel weird when it comes undone (I obviously need a new one).
I do, now again. I just got a MyID tag I wear on my Apple Watch band.
My husband has had a RoadID bracelet engraved with his name, emergency contacts and Type 1 Diabetes. He wears it every time he leaves the house.
I wear a necklace because a bracelet gets caught in tools. Have for 23 years, Unsure if it helps but “just in case…”
I try to, though som times it doesn’t end up on my wrist.
I have an ICE message on my phone that is viewable by anyone and I always carry with me and I wear a Road ID when I ride/race bikes or for other exercise or adventure activities.
I have a medical alert tag with my medical conditions of epilepsy and T1D attached to my purse and also on my cell phone with whom to contact in case of emergency. My insulin pump is also a giveaway. I cannot stand the feeling of jewelry on my skin.
