Cardiologist update

Alliebooberz

Everything checked out great!!

 The cardiologist said that he thinks that the tachycardia is not hurting my heart and the echo cardiogram showed that my heart is in great healthy condition. He also said that it will look scary when my heart rate goes up very high in labor but not to worry and that my heart can handle it.

I'm so happy and relieved.

That is great news! My doctor didn't seem overly concerned about my tachycardia, either. She said she COULD refer me to a Cardi, but in all her time in practice, she hasn't had a patient who complained of tachycardia during pregnancy who was actually diagnosed with something once they went to see the cardiologist. That is the only reason I decided not to go see one. I am happy to hear that your situation turned out good!

I am so glad!!! When I read your post I was worried for you, its scary to think at such a young age you could have been having serious problems with your heart

Wow! So glad to hear that the cardiologist isn't worried...will they send some sort of notification to your OB so that you can continue with your plan for unmedicated labor/birth?

Such good news! Congrats on your strong heart! 

Yup, he said he would call my OB after I left.
