Hey everyone, Ive been reading on the site for a short while, glad to be here on this awesome site! I was recently diagnosed with r.s.d. in my shoulder/arm. Ive been really doing alot of research on this condition trying to learn as much as I can about it. Last week while getting a new tattoo(was actually nice to get my mind off of my other pain =+)), I began to wonder if a person who has r.s.d., if its at all possible for it to spread to another area just from getting a tattoo? (i.e. leg, or foot) Just a thought, I hope this doesnt sound stupid. Just wondered what you all think about this? Has anyone heard anything about this? Any opinions? Thanks.

I have gotten 2 more tattoos since getting RSD and it has yet to spread to those areas!! I have had RSD for 5 years now adn have gotten the first one after RSD about a year or so after and the last one i got was in January!! My doc said it shouldnt do anything bc it only on the first couple layers of skin and the nerves are deeper then that...
I wouldnt worry to much about it!! What did you get??? AMBER |

I don't have any tattoos but I just wanted to say hi to a newbie and say I have never seen this question asked before.

I personally have one tattoo before RSD on my ankle. I want another couple tattoos, but honestly I am scared.
I also want body work done on various places and that worries me the most. I might suck it up/might not. Hugs. Welcome to the group.
