Hey hey
I may have asked on here earlier about this, but nevermind...
Ive been type one diabetic for about 13 years, and my control is fairly good, although not great! Last saturday - a week ago today, I went and got a small tattoo on my hip.. its my dad's initials and 2 musical notes and 2 hearts, so fair small and simple. 7 days on and it has scabbed over well and is just beginining to peel... which is supposed to happen. I was told it would be really itchy, but it hasnt itched at all.
Just wondering if there are any other tattooed type 1s on here and what their experience of getting a tattoo was like - the heeling process etc. I keep worrying mine isnt going as it should be or that my diabetes is going to effect it.
Cheers x
