I know we are supposed to wear some form of Diabetes alert jewelry on our bodies, be it a bracelet or a necklace, but I just can't bring myself to labeling myself like that, especially when it has to do with jewelry.

I was warned years ago never to get the really expensive medical jewelry because it is too easily taken off the person and gets "misplaced." And I also just don't want to see that on me all the time.

I do have a medical alert identity card on me in my wallet and that can be looked at if something happens. I know the jewelry makes sense but I just can't do it. I just don't like it at all.

Does anyone here wear such jewelry and how do you feel about it?
