Is Getting A Tattoo Advisable For Patient With Supraventricular Tachycardia?
I am a 54 year old female, 5'-4" tall, 140lbs. I have supraventricular tachycardia & have been treating it with meds for the last (4) years. Will getting a tattoo cause me any problems? I've been tattoed before but not since I was diagnosed with S.V.T. Thanks. Diana

hi Diana,
There is no direct association of your PSVT and tattoo, but in some patients pain during any procedure or trauma, has been found triggering SVT.
Besides, it is always advised to avoid tattoo, out of many other medical issues.
