What Is The Treatment For Valvular Insufficiency?

I have some type of heart problem i believe its called Valvular insufficiency, i have been wanting a tatoo for years now and i am wondering if i take extremely good care of my tatoo would it be okay to get one. i have not talked to my heart doc in 7 year because i have not had the money. He said it was very posssile for me to outgrow my condition. I have never had any problem that could be related to this condition, i am very active and in good health. I am required to take amoxicillin 500mg befor i go to the dentist, and i would take these pills before getting my tatoo as well. Do you think me getting a tatoo would be okayy??

let's consider all ...valvular insufficiency is usually corrected by valve repair surgery but valve function improve also if we correct aggravating factors ..now second thing ..if you want to get tatoo ..only concern is that person may be allergic to tatoo dye or risk of infection ..you are given antibiotics before any invasive thing as dental work or tatoo just to save you from endocarditis risk with defective valve ..please take your antibiotic before hand ..and tatoo instruments must be sterilised
