Tattoo ink for diabetics?

I apologize if this has already been discussed…

I’m absolutely floored with this idea. I work as a secretary at a tattoo shop and have quite a few tattoos myself…and a lot of people frown up on it…but THIS puts a whole new spin on everything. I am SUPER excited about this, what are your thoughts?

This is interesting. I have never heard of this before, so are you saying with this ink that it would be okay to get a tat being a diabetic? I dont have any, but became diabetic before i could really decide what i wanted to get. :slight_smile:

I am super excited for this…I will be getting another tat when this becomes available…

I’ll be getting one if they come out. My avatar is my med. alert tat. One last thought, if the color change is constant how about a meter that reads the color of the tat. No more finger stabs, just a meter that works like the very first home meters.LOL
