ID tags

I think it is funny too. With all the traveling we do for work ,I read this story to my husband last night he knew exactly what i was saying when i saod the bp part he just cracked up.

I just ordered my roadid last week. I actually won a gift cert for it at the Zion Century ride!!

Anyway, I got the wrist id thinking that would be the most obvious place for the EMTs to look if anything ever happened. But after reading here, I'm wishing I had got the ankle one.

I did have them put on it "NKDA" for No Known Drug Allergies so they'll know whether or not I have any. Plus, I included my blood type.

I'll have to let you know if I like it once it finally gets here.

I was thinking if I had the ankle one, I could use it for everything and not have to switch it- cycling, running, swimming (yeah, right!) hiking...I wish they made a reflective one, though, that would be good.

Good news - the website says it does... "The closure system is 3M reflective Velcro".

My little shoe ones have reflective stuff on them. Plus it's shiny metal, so that reflects. I put my name, date of birth, allergies, three emerg. phone numbers, MD's name and phone number, and blood type. Although nobody's ever going to give me a blood transfusion without officially checking my blood type in the lab, anyways, or if they do, it'll be the universal donor type. They won't take the word of the little piece of metal on my shoe! I keep my dog tag Road ID hanging on the hook by the back door, under the hook for my keys. If I glance down and the shoes I'm wearing don't have a tag on them, it's easier to throw one around my neck than to switch the shoe tag from one to the other.
