Recently, I wanted to get my ears pierces again, I went to the shop and was told I would have to get a letter from my doctor before i could have them done.

Has anyone else been told this?? They told me that everyone has to have a doctors letter first.

    Not heard of that..but remember when daughter had hers done about 3 or 4 yrs ago at that chain that sells accessories there were some forms to sign. They also explained the hygiene side of things etc.

    I remember people used to do it themselves.....yack.

    Thank You All

    I suppose they saw me coming didn't they, on oxygen, neck brace plus everything else that is visable, that may have been why.

    Can you do them for me? I trust you, I won't scream, honest. I will have to wait for tomorrow to get a cork. I will have one of my injection needles I use will that be ok?

    Where shall I meet you????

    Right, I will start off now, I should reach there by tomorrow.

    I don't mind if your hand is a little shakey Please not 60 holes in one ear.

    I have a feeling my ears might fall off if you do. :shock:

    I can't afford anything else falling off, I will disapear soon. :shock:
    I wonder if super glue would stick me back together, :mrgreen:

    Trish xxx who is so pleased you have come back :D

    i have never hurd of this, my sister is a peicer by trade, she does everything and has never asked anyone for a doctors letter. To my knowladge the only ppl she has refused on medical grounds was a young lad who had blood clotting problems so therefore would have bled loads!!!! Silly boy !!!!

    I did my own ears when I was a teenager.I think they panicked when they saw the neck brace definately! Are you going to get a doctors letter or get a friend to do it for you?
