Yesterday saw us back at Boston to see Dr. Marx. They did another sedated echo and had a really good look at mitral valve. They also did another chest X-ray.
Dr. Marx said her chest X-ray was really improved so that means a lot of the fluid is off of her lungs. Great news.
He also said there was still high pressure in her lungs and that the mitral valve is still small and causing a back up but he feels she is doing so well right now, gaining weight – she is 17lbs 2 oz and 29 1/2 in long- he wants to give her a little more time.
We are back to see him in Boston on Feburary 15.
So all in all it was a good visit and a relief. We see such an improvement in her already. She is moving around and really showing us her personalty. It is so great.
