I carry a wallet card and have a app downloaded to my phone for emergency responders and that was before ra. If you are on a serious med, have a lot of meds, a severe allergy, or list of health issues. First responders and drs need that info even if your unconcious bc that could save your life and change what decisions they make in doing so easier and faster

Ive often wondered about this.... especially if one is involved in a serious accident but then i suppose one family is there to tell the doctor.... as it is not like insulin and methotrexate is normally taken on a weekly basis. However in your case ,maybe it is because of the low platelet count???

All of my physicians are a part of Texas Health Resources. My records of everything are online for doctors to use. I probably need to put some information in my billfold just in case. I don’t drive anymore as I’m on pain meds and my husband asked me not to. He sold my car earlier this year. I’ve been housebound for so long it doesn’t really matter anymore.

Some doctors do, some don’t. I was seeing a nurse practitioner at one point who wanted to cross the t and dot the I’s. She even kept a refill of heavy duty strength antibiotics for me for whenever I would get sick. I never used it but it was nice to have access to it. My luck I always get something rare and shitty lol. But yeah I have had doctors tell me to have even a back up plan for such cases like this

You were right Gabreal, very helpfull. Thank you so much!
