No shite. The way it was worded led me to believe they saw the heart doing an abdominal US which was confusing. Come to find out they did an echo as well and he mentioned maybe a valve issue but it appears they were very vague in explaining what they were possibly concerned with. Strange there was no mention of EKG or anything. You will most certainly need to see a heart valve to know exactly what’s wrong with it eventually.

I dont know what prompted the echo. Two things mentioned were thickness of the heart wall and something about a valve. Anyway, we'll see. She's not in any distress, she just has a very slow pulse (except occasionally when it is fast) and some vague symptoms once in a while that could be attributed to a lot of things.
