Hello everyone! I'm a 24yr old with PA/PS (specifically pulmonary artery stenosis). At 8 months old I had a coarctation of the aorta, a stent put in when I was 11/12yrs old and I am on aspirin for the rest of my life.

I recently had a check up with my adulthood heart surgeon to which I finally asked "Am I allowed tattoos?" His words were while I can't stop you because you're an adult, I strongly don't recommend it and explained why. But I would still love to try and get a tattoo. And I'm thinking what if it was a small tattoo from a reputable artist? I'd to love to hear advice from others on this because as much as I'd like to respect my heart surgeon, at the same time it's been a life long dream of mine to experience a tattoo.
