We've been on such an upswing with his heart that I've not been thinking about it so much. Until this last appt with his cardiologist. Unfortunately his ascending aorta measurement has again moved into the moderate level. See notes below. Root seems ok but not the other. Because of this she upped his Losartan to keep up with his size change. We haven't changed his dose in quite a while so that might account for the issue. But still. Just a bummer. We will switch back to an ECHO every 3 months along with a Zio Patch to watch things a bit closer.
