Hi, I'm wendy. Would appreciate any help in advising what readings should I be monitoring for my son aortic regurgitation condition. He is 16 and was recently diagnosed to have mild aortic insufficiency. Presently, he is on invoril-10mg per day. Other than this medication, the cardiologist has not given me any parameters on his heart conditions. I have been monitoring his pressure readings at home. What are the "normal" reading for patients with this condition? His readings is normally in the range of 126-135 for the systolic and 58-68 for the diastolic. What are the parameters should the doctor provide so that we as parents know of his progression and when there is a need of surgery. I am really at a loss now.
Thank you.
