Bye Bye Digoxin!

Dr. Garmany is starting to wean Tyler off of Digoxin. Hopefully in two months, we will be down to only 5 medications!

Childrens Hospital Visit in Pittsburgh


Our third trip to Pittsburgh was on Monday and Tyler got a good report. Dr. Miller was very pleased with the way he presented. There was no significant change in his heart function or the size of his heart, but she is pleased with his activity level and his growth and overall health. She's also seen two more kids that present the same way that Tyler's heart does and they were definitely diagnosed with CM due to the interovirus, so she believes that Tyler's condition is a result of the virus and not congenital.

We are now set to visit Pittsburgh twice a year and be followed here by Tyler's local cardiologist.

God is good!
