Well the echo results for my heart came back, I am fine and my heart looks good! Now that the doctor has ruled out my heart and lungs as the cause of my wheezing, he thinks that there is inflammation and scar tissue in my throat caused by being on a ventilator for so long, as well as my acid reflux. The plan is for me to take six doses of steroids over three days and see if that helps. I have hit a plateau on my bottle feedings so maybe treating the inflammation will help, the doctor says we may not see results until after the third dose. Be sure to come back and check on my progress!
