Weight Loss Surgery For Men Should Include A Medical Id

In an emergency, following weight loss surgery, when a man might not be able to speak for himself, a medical ID bracelet or necklace speaks for him.

Symptoms of weight loss surgery can easily be misdiagnosed. Prompt diagnosis is critical to effective treatment. A brief description of vital medical facts engraved on a medical ID ensures appropriate and timely medical care.

According to a published study, half of all medical errors occur because of mistakes made upon admission or discharge from the hospital. Wearing a medical ID protects against potentially harmful medical errors.

More than 95 percent of emergency responders look for a medical ID; more than 75 percent check for a medical ID immediately upon assessing the patient. If men who have undergone weight loss surgery wear a medical ID, it will not be missed.

Medical IDs eliminate trips to the hospital, reduce unnecessary hospital admissions and prevent minor emergencies from becoming major ones. Medical IDs save lives! At the www.weightlosssurgerymen.com website there is a link for medical IDs in attractive, affordable, and masculine designs.  Go to the Men: Health and Fitness button and click Medical ID.

More than 30,000 American men had weight loss surgery in 2008; more than 60,000 American men will have weight loss surgery in 2009. By 2015, more than a quarter million men will have weight loss surgery each year.

As morbid obesity climbs, so do the medical consequences of diabetes, hypertension, and other life-threatening conditions. Just because men have more lean muscle mass and a lower body fat percentage than women, weight loss can be just as challenging for men.

Beyond these medical results, men have a different experience following weight loss surgery. The need for protein to support a healthy lifestyle, which may include weight-training, can be most challenging. Finding the best combination of vitamins for absorption or taking care of one's appearance can be brand new for men (whereas women in American culture are conditioned to focus on appearance.) Many men, who may not have felt sexy in a long time, are suddenly seen as attractive, providing a totally new series of challenges and opportunities.

There are hundreds of support groups throughout the U.S. for patients who have undergone weight loss surgery. Since 85% of those surgeries in 2008 were performed on women, these support groups are often run by women and for women. There is very little access to the experience that men have following these procedures.

medic ID bracelet alternative?

Instead of getting a real expensive one where those people have your medical information, is there anything wrong w/ having "diabetes" and her doctor's name and phone number engraved on the back of a less expensive one? I like the idea of limiting who has her medical record information, and it seems to be an alternative to spending a mint for the bracelet. Right? Or is there an irreplaceable value to them having her info? The patient is a 6 year old type 1 diabetic.
not necessary to say things like "what does the cost matter..." like I'm not a good mother. Perfectly legitimate question and I'm asking to be taught what the value of this membership is, that's not obvious to me.

I think your idea is absolutely fine. In fact I have chosen to go your route rather than having my medical records hanging on my neck (so to speak) My reasoning is that I would rather someone phone my doctor for a question on dosage and have his input than some resident in the ER making an independant judgment call based on their new learning experience concerning emergency medicine and type 1 diabetes.

I have good friends who have been residents (e.g. licensed medical doctors just out of school) treating patiets in the ER. We are good friends, but I would not want them making a judgment call for me (if they needed my medical records) trying to independantly evaluate my medical records. I would much rather they call my endocrinologist.

The aviailability of medical records (imho only) is not necessary except for giving the medic alert more profit. I think your idea makes perfect sense and I do the same.
