[QUOTE="Bluey1, post: 1888316, member: 36344"] I know you are trying to be discreet, but I think a medical professional could easily overlook that tattoo as a Diabetic warning. Nothing against the design or the concept of a tattoo, I just don't think that design will not achieve the objective of telling someone you are a diabetic. Remember if you are out to it they will not be spending time analysing a tattoo before treatment, even the boys with the big I'M DIABETIC tattoos could be missed if they are wearing long sleeves. I'm not suggesting you go to the extent some of the guys here have done, but I would make the diabetic part much more obvious. If it's just a tattoo for you go for it. I'm seriously thinking of getting one, I have other non medical tattoos already. This is a recent thread with an amazing D tattoo asd I'm not suggesting something this bold but it does grab your attention [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/just-got-my-type-one-diabetic-tattoo.156501/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
