I'm a type 1 diabetic and I have 3 tattoos. All were done long after I was diagnosed with diabetes.

She just has to be extra careful with the aftercare and watch closely for infection.

She should avoid getting one on an extremity (arm or leg) because diabetics often have decreased circulation which can prolong healing time.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

According to S. William Levy, MD, clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center, "There's no harm in getting a tattoo as long as you take the necessary precautions." "First of all, make absolutely certain that you go to an accredited tattoo artist. Your State Board of Cosmetology may grant certificates to tattoo artists who fulfill the necessary hygienic measures." Levy warns people with diabetes there are certain places you shouldn't have tattoos, including: places with poor circulation such as ankles lower legs and buttocks, and areas where you take your insulin shots such as the abdomen, arms or thighs.

Only that she will be at a higher risk of infections on her skin than a person without diabetes.

She has to be extra careful with the looking after and the cleansing.
