Elizabeth had an echo on her heart Tues, the Cardiologist came back and told us that the report showed her hypertension was improving and did not appear to be as severe as the report from Cinncinati was. So that is a piece of good news for us! They do want to do a cath lab on her but it can be scheduled as an outpatient procedure in 4 to 6 months after she has some more time to grow. She continues to have problems with gagging and throwing up with her feeding tube and the doctors want to check her for reflux. So, a Gastrologist came by today and talked with us about placing a PH probe down her nose and into her throat, it will be there for 24 hrs to check for acidic content and determine if reflux is causing her to be have the gagging/vomiting episodes. If so then we may have to consider having surgery to place a Gtube in her stomach. But we wont be making a decision on that for a little while.  She has an appt tomorrow at 1 pm to have the probe put in, the poor girl will have a feeding tube in one nostril, then the PH probe in another plus oxygen on top of that!! Her MRI is scheduled for 10AM on Friday and if all goes well with it we may be looking at going home this weekend :)
