So it's a bit of a "wait and see" game with the heart.
As for her lungs - - she is improving..... she will likely be on meds indefinitely for the collapsing mainstem bronchi, and reacts as though she is having an asthma attack sometimes as a result.... but again, she is improving!
Her 2nd bile acid test came back perfectly normal so the doctors' concerns regarding the possibility of a liver shunt, are no longer....
YAY YAY YAY!! |
