Ok, the reason there are so many conflicting views on here is because all doctors are different and have different opinions. Doctors are in a field where they kind of get to make their own rules, not on all things, but some things. Some doctors believe that giving epidurals when there is a tattoo in the way is fine and they will give you an epidural no questions asked. On the other hand you may get a doctor who believes that giving an epidural through a tattoo is not healthy and therefore he will not give you one. I suggest if you are worried about it to ask your doctor his policy on it and if you don't like the answer, switch doctors.
