Dermographism and tattoos?

I'm pretty sure I have dermographism although I have not been diagnosed by a doctor, I was wondering is it okay to get a tattoo with this condition?

Yeah it appears all the time when I scratch my skin or hit something hard but goes it goes away quickly. I'll make sure to ask my doctor about it

I would ask a doctor before you do it, does the dermagraphism appear regularly, its part of urticaria so it does affect your skin ...some call it skin writing I have had it, at the moment it has subsided .
