I was thinking today, and it made me very curious. What if I end up needed the ambulance and they look at my medical ID bracelet and notice I m allergic to Ativan and Dilantin. Is there any other medications they can use in the ambulance or do they only have those two? I live in California and...

I just received my Medical Alert Bracelet yesterday. I put my name, epilepsy,and allergic to ativan and dilantin. The only reason that I put allergic to ativan and dilantin is because when I go to the hospital they give me those med's and then like a day later I come home and have these sores...

The last time I was at the hospital the doc obbserved me and said my heart rate wasn't in the danger zone, during a seizure. When my hubby told me that I felt like again the doctors wount beleave me.

I went to my doctor not my neruro one, but my Gp and she asked how my seizures have been and I told her only 2 so far this month. Then she asked about if I had any side effects and I said no.
