Greetings,

Just got back home from my Eco.

I don't have official results in the sense of measurements, but the cardiac physiologist said my heart is working normally, everything is where it should be, and that there are no obvious abnormalities.

Because I had a small ASD when I was young, back then the doctor advised it should close by the time I am older. Now my GP heard a "soft" systolic murmur, and according to the Eco all seems to be fine.

The cardiac physiologist will write a report to my GP and then if further investigation is needed then she mentioned an exam called a Bubble Ecocardiagram.
