Good Cardiology Report

Ah, three hours later we got a "good" status. EKG good, heart rate good, blood pressure good, oxygen sats good, echo good, murmur still there, liver position good.

Bottom line is good. The bicuspid valve has not gotten worse, so that is good. They are even letting us come back in 8 months, instead of 6 months. Awesome! Dr. Siu thinks that the small VSD has closed and the murmur is actually created by the bicuspid valve, aka muscle flap. He will compare todays ECHO to last times. This is what they are watching. This is their main concern, aside from the pacemaker of course. The liver is positioned fine. It was probably scar tissue that his pediatrician felt. It's a good thing I don't overreact when doctors tell me something! Thanks for the prayers. They were heard!
