Thanks- I have been carrying a patch-cover in my wallet and in every purse pocket. It also seems to me that medical personel should be able to locate the patch itself on my body...And I just don't like jewelry- I'm just not a jewelry kind of person; I don't like the sensation of something hanging or dangling on me- just a quirk. My doctor hasn't suggested any alternatives-and he grills me about it at every appointment. I could ask my pharmacist I guess...but first I'll read the rest of the responses on this thread. Thanks again.
> Hmm... though choice if you don't obviously want to advertise to the world you medical condations. Have you asked you doc or looked around? I'm sure there are some fashionable and more descreet options than in the past. I'm not sure what type of jewelery you'd be absolutely opposed to or as to what medics actually recgnize.
