Appears to be having VUR. To be sure, whether you should go for surgery or not, you should take second opinion and that too from a medical college.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. As I understand you are on treatment for hypothyroidism (developed after covid infection), plus for myasthenia.

Asked for female, 29 years old from Tirunelveli

At 20 days of my son's birth we took echo test for my son. He have congenital supravalvular aortic stenosis (Mild 2.8 (33)). Now he is 8 months. On july 21 We took the same test. Now it is moderate (3.5 (15)). So we are consulting pediatric cardiologist. My doubt is when proper treatment is taken for this. If surgery needed wen it is to be done. After surgery Will he be completely alright or will consequences occur lifelong.

You need to do regular follow up with Paediatric Cardiologist and also do regular 2D echo at intervals of 2-3 months to see progression of severity. Once the obstruction is severe, he will need Surgery.

My daughter aged 8 month is born with congenital heart defect. Her recent 2d echo report state that (1) acyanotic congenital heart disease-left to right shunt ostium secundum atrial septal defect (8-9mm). (2) dilated right atrium & ventricle. (3) no pulmonic stenosis/patent duct us arteriosus. (4) intact inter ventricular septum. (5) sites solitus. (6) levocardia. She has no feeding problem till date except reconcurrent cough. Is open heart surgery or device closure necessary to close the hole at these 8 month age? heard that most infant asd close itself by the time of age of 2 years.

Dr. Pradeep Kumar Jain89%(150 ratings)

You can wait till 2 years of age. But keep the baby in regular follow up with serial echo 6 monthly to see any bad effect on the lung due to increased flow from the defect. Chances of closure in 8-9 mm asd is less. In case asd less than 8 mm 80% chance of closure is there.

There are various causes affecting menstruation. You need to immediately consult me privately. I can prescribe some tests to identify the causes and treat accordingly.
