A Tattoo For My PM

Hi everyone. I am pretty new to this site. I am 20 years old and had my PM for 10 years due to AV heartblock and bradycardia since birth. (I am very interested in sharing stories with anyone and hopefully with some people close in age).

I was just wondering if anyone had some ideas on what kind of tattoo would represent my PM. Does anyone have one which symbolizes their PM or condition, or possibly have seen some? I was hoping to incorporate a heart and/or butterfly (or even a shamrock with a lucky leaf), but that is as far as I have gotten.
Don't worry, I do NOT want to get it near the PM site. I will most likely get it on my back or ankle. I have checked with my cardiologist and know what precautions are necessary to take.

If anyone is interested in talking about this or anything else, feel free to message or IM (luvlafter2).
Creative suggestions welcome!
Thanks!

Hi Meghan,
Welcome to the club I am 22 so pretty close to your age. I would love to hear your stories. There are a great number of people around your age on this club. All of the others are just as amazing also. They become family after a while.
I am planning on getting my tattoo sometime also. I don't have any clever ideas really though sorry.
Once again welcome!

Tammy

I've been thinking this one over for a while and I think i'll find a good artist and get them to come up with an old school design with a heart hooked up to a battery or something along those lines.....

Finally got one
