Hello, i have arthritis and for the last two months i am being treated with prednisone 7.5 mg a day +methotrexate 10mg once a week.can i get a tattoo?

Probably OK, but...: ...you should check first with the doctor or clinic treating your arthritis. They might advise waiting until someday when you're not taking prednisone, or perhaps on a lower dose. Probably no harm would come, but you shouldn't take the chance without your doctor's approval.
