Addi Update 01/08/09

Addi had some heart rate (dips down into the 50’s) and rhythm (sinus arrhythmia) issues after the surgery. It started about 8 hours after surgery and continued to get worse overnight. The cardiologist believed it was due to vagus nerve irritation from the surgery. Addi saw her regular cardiologist late yesterday and he said the current EKG looked okay. Her next big surgery is going to be some time in March or April. She will have to go in for a heart cath sometime between now and then. We’ll know more after her heart cath. The kids should be getting a call in the next week or two with dates for the cath and surgery.
