Please pray or send healing thoughts to Missy, or whatever your personal beliefs allow. She went to the cardiologist today. Here is her diagnosis: Diagnosis: Congenital heart disease. Missy has a large atrial septal defect/ventricular septal defect (8 mm) a hole in the lower atrial septal and upper ventricular septal wall where the chambers join which allows blood to shunt right to left and left to right in the heart. Her heart chambers are dialated and her pulmonary artery and veins are dilated. Her right ventricular wall is mildly thickened. The defects can lead to congenital heart disease (CHF) with fluid retention in the lungs, chest cavity and/or abdomen. Therefore I would recommend starting her on a low dose of furosemide. She called in a prescription of furosemide 10 mg/ml .3 mg once daily. Here is Missy's picture, for those who haven't seen it. http://www.moonvine.net/missy -- Rescuties - Saving the world, one cat at a time. http://www.rescuties.org Vist the Rescuties store and save a kitty life! http://astore.amazon.com/rescuties-20
