Another ECHO

Hello Everybody,

Sorry for the long delay in updating Jordan's site. She has been doing great. We went to clinic today, but first she had to have another followup Echocardiogram because ever since she came down with the shingles, she has had fluid around her heart. It is not considerable, but they keep checking every 2 weeks or so. Today's results were the same, still about 5ml of fluid around the heart....normal is 1ml. Dr. Dudlani (cardiologist) is not concerned, but wants to repeat the Echo again in about 2-3 weeks to see if it's any better.

She had labs drawn today, as usual, but we weren't in clinic long enough to get the results and Dr. Petrovic. She said she would call with the results, but hasn't yet. No news is most likely good news. Her counts have been stable for many months, so we are not expecting any surprises.

We hope you are all doing well. Thanks for continuing to check up on Jordan, it puts a smile on her face to read your guestbook entries.

Lots of love,

Katherine
