You will eventually need MRI and CatScans, with tattoo ink, there is heavy metals, and the scans will be excruciating because the powerful magnets will pull them from your skin and it will be excruciating. Joe Joe, I’m sorry, but that’s not at all correct. Ken has a tattoo and has had too many MRI/MRAs and CT scans to count, and he has never had a single problem. One of the transplant doctors at Baylor even brags about his skill putting belly tattoos back together after the surgery! Sorry Joe. I will say, I’d think twice (and 3 times) about getting one though (I sure wish Ken had). Ever seen a 60+ person with a tattoo? It ain’t pretty!
