So, I saw Dr. Akhtar...and there was no news about what they want to do with my heart. He wanted to let me know that the cardiologists involved here in Saskatoon had met and discussed my case in depth. Now, it has to be brought up in the monthly video conference meeting with the cardiologists from across western Canada. I thought they had already met, but no, not yet. They had a video conference scheduled for Jan. 31. Dr. Akhtar was hoping to have my case brought up then, but he couldn't be sure of that, since I am not the only patient they are discussing. So, now I wait to hear if I was brought up, and what they have decided to do.
Dr. Akhtar mentioned a few options of what they may do. Surgery (open heart or maybe in through the side), an angiogram type procedure (up through the groin and into the heart), they may wait until after another baby, or they may choose to do nothing.
Now I have to try to be patient and hope that I was brought up at the meeting on the 31st!
