I have a silicon MYID & often forget it’s there. The ambulances I’ve been in often thank me for wearing one so definitely get one. Could save your life!

I have one too. I’m always afraid I’ll be unconscious and they won’t know what to do. Got one. It could save your life.

Yes, I have to wear a bracelet. But what is so great myid.com has rubber sleeves you can slip right on your watch band. And on the back of the sleeve you have a QR code and when you scan it, using the camera all of your info will pop up on your phone. And they didn’t have one for Adrenal Insufficiency and I wrote to the company and they now have a black sleeve with white lettering. Check it out, I love mine!
