Yes, when out alone, I wear a chord bracelet made by military veterans that identifies focal impairment and refers to military 'dog tags' around my neck. These tags have: options as to who to call and their telephone numbers (wife and daughter) and the names of all medications I take. An EMT has all the info at their fingertips in less than a minute, if they take the time to read them.

Yes, ‘Epilepsy’ is the first thing listed on it, then ‘Allergic to Dilantin’, then ‘traumatic brain injury’, followed by a couple of other medical issues. But, if you get the one from MedicAlert, there’s an 800- number for someone to call to get all your medication info and your Dr’s contact info. I recommend it because it’s saved me a couple of times, because of my allergy to Dilantin. And ask about assistance with the annual fee, if it’s a problem.

I have a purple (the color that represents epilepsy) one just in case something were to happen to my husband and myself so that EMS and Medical personnel will know and know where to find my information.
