I have a medical tattoo ! I basically designed it myself.. its on my left wrist, and i got it a couple months after being diagnosed w diabetes last summer.. I had NO complications ! and it actually didnt hurt me that much, just felt like cat scratches..
Mine has the emergency alert symbol, and the blue diabetic ring around it.. then it says type-one diabetic. ill find a picture of it and add it to my page somehow if you wanna check it out. I chose to splash it up with color, so it looks more girly, and cute =]
But I though of all of yall when I saw this on TV tonight. It was on a show called dLife. I think it's on CNBC. Anyway, they had an episode where one of the moderators gets a medical alert tattoo from one of the reality TV Show Tattoo guys who is also a daibetic. Thought you might be interested.
