Thanks Vrae I haven't tried Veet for years, I'll give it a go on a small non-craps area first and see what happens!

Wow Kathy, you little firecracker!

I might not agree with the risks involved, but that risk is YOURS to take. You know what you are doing and have made the decision with full knowledge. I admire your attitude to fighting the CRPS, And like Vrae, I hope that all goes well. I think we all need to keep chasing the odd dream, especially when every day this condition stamps all over most of them... You go girl!!

Bram.

KathyUK,
Not meant to encourage but ... I got mine for my 50th birthday. Yes it was incredibly painful. I went through 3 sessions of 2 1/2 to 3 hours each. There is no residual or additional CRPS pain. Mine is of a Manowar. It has multiple meanings for me. It runs just below the outside of my knee to just above my ankle on my right leg. It turned out beautifully. I am not sure if it was worth all the pain or risk. BUT, I did it anyway. It is my first tattoo. It was risky.
