New Medical ID and A Coupon Code

I had the opportunity to receive and review this sample ID bracelet from American Medical ID. All opinions are my own and are in no way influenced by the company providing the items.

New Year, medical ID

For years I have worn medical ID jewelry. In 1974 when I was diagnosed with diabetes and on my second day in the hospital, my parents brought me a bracelet with the label Type 1 Diabetes. It was one of the things I disliked the most about those days. I wore that bracelet for most of a year until I got a necklace that said the same thing. I wore that necklace for over 15 years.

When the first one was so faded it was difficult to read, I got my second, and I wore it almost non-stop for another 15 years until the chain broke. Then, of course, I stopped wearing it for a time. In 2005, Sheryl gifted me a new necklace and chain, and I wore that one for 12 years. So, it is about time to make a change.

Many Choices

A few weeks ago American Medical ID reached out and asked if I would like to review one of their medical ID’s and thinking it was nearly time to change my necklace I agreed. I selected a wonderful black onyx metal with my name, Sheryl’s name and her telephone number engraved on the metal. I also added Diabetes, AS, RA and Heart condition on the medal.

The medal is awesome looking. You can look at the blank of the medal I choose by following this link: Rick’s Black Onyx medal . It is a wonderful new medal, and it is not difficult for emergency responders to spot.

What I love about American Medical ID is the incredible variety of styles and types of ID they have. They have styles for everyone. They have a wide range of accessories including bands, chains, and tags. They have a supply of electronic products that can be worn and adapted as medications and diagnoses change.

The new ID is so cool

I could not be more pleased with my necklace. I am so happy with the choice I made for the ID, and it even seems (can a 61-year-old man say this) stylish. This is a far cry from the bracelet I received in 1974 when I was first diagnosed. Those of us with the chronic disease lose a lot, so maybe it is justice that we get at least a few things that are cool. American Medical ID is one of those cool things.

One thing I suggest is that you should consider the length of the chain. I like mine a little shorter than the chain that came with my new medal. It wa

s easy just to switch back to my old chain, but if this is your first medal you might try two chain lengths to make sure you have the correct size. In my case, I just use the standard metal chain with round beads. They have many styles of chains, so you have lots of choices.

Overall, I just love this new medical ID. I am wearing it daily. I suggest medical jewelry for people with Diabetes, RA, AS and for the remainder of the chronic illnesses.

If you wear a medical ID, why did you start and if not have you ever considered wearing one?
