Cath Results

Lynnea is finished with her heart cath, and the procedure went went fine. The good news is that the aorta looks OK. The stent in her aorta needed ballooning, so it was ballooned open, and now it looks pretty good. The bad news is that she no longer has any flow through her left pulmonary veins. There was nothing left of the veins that could be ballooned open in any way. So, as we already knew from her lung profusion scan, there is no blood flow to her left lung. This was very discouraging, not really surprising, but very discouraging. I don't know what this means for any plan from here on out. The cardiology team will discuss it.
