So I have decided that for my anniversary I want to get a tattoo that represents fibro

I'm looking for 1 to a few words you would use to describe fibro. Happy or sad. Anything.
I want to make this tattoo as personal as I can.
Thanks for your input

Members rallied around someone planning a fibromyalgia-themed tattoo, offering powerful word suggestions like 'warrior,' 'undefeated,' 'courageous,' and 'strong,' along with visual ideas featuring butterflies in the newly designated cranberry color. Several members shared that tattoos and piercings surprisingly don't hurt more with fibro and can even be relaxing, with one member describing falling asleep during a neck tattoo. A recurring theme was choosing symbols that celebrate resilience and strength over pain, with many emphasizing that living with chronic illness requires constant courage and that warrior spirit deserves to be visible and honored.

@A MyFibroTeam Member, I think maybe Fibro Warrioress might work. Or Strong because we all are strong to be able to live with this chronic disease. Good luck on a name! Gentle hugs! PS the official color for Fibromyalgia has changed from purple to Cranberry no other chronic disease has this color at this time.

Ooohh l'm thinking of getting a tattoo that represents fibro, l love butterflies anyway, and they symbolise change, and wow!! And what changes we have all been through. It will probably be next year now as Xmas is coming up. My hubby is a fantastic drawer, so l will get him to design one. My hubby said I'm the strongest person he has ever known, with what I've been through in my past never mind the fibro. So my tattoo would have to embody "Strength" x

I did hear they changed the color. I like the idea of it having it's own color but I think they need to get that information out there
