Here are a few sources from Obesity Help for Medic Alert bracelets. There is varying opinions on whether one is needed or not. If you have a question about it, go to Obesity Help LIBRARY and type in search words: "medic alert bracelet" and there is alot of information that might help you decide.
Suggestions from ObesityHelp.com members for wording:
"Gastric Bypass - Do Not Blindly Place N/G Tube. Use Endoscopy"
"Careful with NG tubes- Gastric Bypass patient"
