Any idea where to get the medical bracelets that show that you have had gastric bypass surgery?

Can gastric sleeve patients not have blind NG tubes either? Just curious if I'll need a bracelet.

I have found one on Lauren's Hope. It is sterling silver and you can have 8 lines printed on it. It is $129.95 Very classy .....

The wife ordered mine at Wal Mart. It was fairly cheap. ( or I wouldn't have it) LOL!
They had to send in an order ot get it engraved. It is a lazer engraving and a chain bracelet. I doono what options they had. We are from way out in the boonies so I am sure city walmarts would be able to get one too.
