Can I get a tattoo if Im pregnant, have diabetes, am epileptic or have hemophilia?
If your pregnant NO, you could hurt the baby or even cause yourself to have a miscarriage. Diabetic’s – talk to the artist. Diabetic’s usually don’t heal normally and are subject to easy infections. Also between the Endorphins & Adrenaline peeking due to the pain being inflicted, your blood sugar can bottom out VERY quickly. So again, talk to your artist. Some may not feel comfortable with the possibilities of you crashing. If your artist is willing to tattoo you, be sure to have on hand, Coke, Orange Juice or other drink with Sugar in it as well as a couple of candy bars to help keep your blood sugar up or to bring it back up if it drops to low on you. If your epileptic NO, getting a tattoo could cause you to go into an epileptic seizure. If you have hemophilia NO, the blood of a person with hemophilia does not clot normally. They do not bleed more profusely or more quickly than other people; however, they bleed for a longer time. Far more important is internal bleeding (hemorrhaging)
