Changes on Echo
by *Robin*, Sep 30, 2008 05:29PM
I posted last week about having elevated Pulmonary Pressure and having to see a Pulmonologist for further testing. Well, I'm seeing a Pulmonologist tomorrow and had to get a copy of my Echocardiologram Report.
It shows that within the last 6 months
- Mitral, Tricuspid, and Pulmonary Regurgitation
- My Pulmonary Pressure went up from 35 to 40 (35 is on the high side of normal)
So, my question is, what do these changes mean and what could have caused them? All of my other Echo's have been normal. The only thing I have done differently in the past 6 months was take the herbs for my Lyme Disease. While I feel better in some areas, my heart symptoms haven't improved much.
Thank you very much for your opinions. I am so confused about all this.
