I was actually thinking about posting a question in regards to tattoos. I like the tattoo btw! I have one myself ..lower back and absolutely love it! I got it several years ago before all this mess started. I have wanted to get another one but now I don't think it's a good idea. My husband feels it's probably a really bad idea. I have full body RSD and not sure if a tattoo would be a good idea. Would it make the flare worse? I would think so. I haven't been able to ask my Dr yet. I kinda just figured it was out of the question completely being it's a painful thing (even though my first one didn't hurt) and pain with RSD is a BAD thing. So my question is..if you have full body RSD..can you get a tattoo? Also just having it on one side..be careful because remember...our brains process everything as PAIN and pain on top of pain...UGG
