Cardio update

This is Munc for Sarah again....

Evan's cardio appointment showed that he looks good, his heart looks good from the echo. If it was endocarditis there would have been more signs: leaking around the valve, Evan would've been much sicker, etc. Dr. said reason for 103 degree temp spike is an unknown at this point. Advised to stop giving Motrin to see what temperature would do, just keep a close eye on things. If it goes above 101.5 to call cardio and further tests would be performed. The cardio felt that taking Evan to the pediatrician at this time would be a greater risk since he appears to be doing so well. So for now it is hang tight, watch temp and keep on moving. Thanks for all the prayers.
