Hi all!

I had my aneurysm clipped 2 years ago, and I'm looking into getting a tattoo that means a lot to me and my family. I know to make sure it's from a reputable, licensed artist and to ensure maximum hygienic safety precautions are taken. That said, still wanted to check in.

1. Has anyone here had any difficulty with getting a tattoo after brain surgery/clipping?

2. Are there any other considerations/things to be mindful of? (Specific inks, etc.)

This is my first tattoo, and I come from a medically fun family, so would rather double-check these things. Would love any and all feedback!

Hi all!

I come from a family of PKD'ers and am currently on Tolvaptan; eGFR in the 80's so still have a few years before my transplant.

1. Has anyone here had any difficulty with getting a tattoo with PKD?

2. Has anyone had recent tattoos cause any trouble with transplant chances?

3. Are there any other considerations/things to be mindful of? (Specific inks, etc.)

Would love any and all feedback!
