I have a defibrillator on the left side and i want to get a tattoo on my ring finger on the left side can i get one without the defibrillator going off?

I should think so: Is this a wedding band substitute? Just an FYI. It is VERY hard to remove tattoos, especially ones that go around a finger. Also expensive. Maybe more expensive than a simple band...... but, your choice of course! Good luck.
