Hello everyone

[Lady's my name]

I'm new here. I'm Lady and yes that's my real name
I have some really crazy things happening to me lately
it started in Sept-08
This is what happened
I was getting ready for bed and after laying down
I started feeling really hot in my chest then my neck and face
and I got really red then I couldn't breath I thought I was dying
my chest hurt and I got a bad headache ...Hum Very scary
My 17 year old called 911.
They told me I had a panic attack. We thought I was having another
heart attack. I had one on Nov-12-01
any way I have had 3 since then. they got a little worse each time
passing out and all.
the only thing that has been the same on each day that I had a "panic attack"
was that I got work done on my full sleeve that I have been getting work done on for 8 moths now and I have a high tolerance to pain so getting tattoo's really doesn't bother me
and I love going there to get work done.

Your thought's Please
Thank you
Lady~*

Hey Lady,

Well firstly welcome.

Secondly, if tattoos dont bother you then something else is.

Like the reason why you want to go there and have another tattoo,

Like the reason why you want beauty or symbols tattoed on you.

I feel it's not the tattoo but the reason for wanting one.

Can you relate to that?

Thanks for writing
Yeah! I see what your saying but I love my ink
I think their beautiful they are pictures into my soul
I'm very comfortable with my tattoo's
One of the reason's I waited so late in my life to get my sleeve done is
because my dad was always telling us kids not to ever get tattoo's but I have always wanted them.
I have other tattoo's where they can't been see all the time.

Well I guess you do bring up a good thought
I'm going to see a therapist in a few weeks
Hopefully we can get this figured out

When I had the first one they thought I had a hot flash and that set off a panic attack
So I'm wondering if that can happen?

anyway thanks again
Lady~*

Maybe it isn't panic but an allergy. Many people are sensitive to dyes. You can develop a sensitivity any time, just because you haven't had a problem before doesn't mean there isn't one now. If it's a chemical sensitivity an allergy test may not show it but you should talk to an allergist, a full reaction can be fatal.
