What Causes Heart Murmur In Babies?
My 2 month old son had an echo because the pedi said he had a heart murmur and wanted to have it checked. They sent the echo results to a leading children s hospital and 2 days later called and said they couldn t read the results and we need to have it redone....is this normal or could it be they saw something abnormal and want to do it again...would they tell us right off? I m so worried now and think there may be an underlying issue they noticed but don t want to say?
