Speaking of more severe problems, I started thinking about emergency hospitalizations. I know there is some extra risk involved in some of the anesthetics & meds they give in hospitals. Last time I was on vacation I made a little pocket size list of the drugs I take & told my family about it. Now I keep it in my wallet in hopes that if I'm admitted to a hospital and can't communicate, they will go through my wallet and find the note. Sometimes emergency procedures need to be done before a medical chart can be consulted.
Has anyone else taken such precautions? Just curious.
