Gloaming,
Thank you for your reply to my post. I appreciate you taking the time to address my Tricuspid regurgitation & the TEE.
I’m not looking forward to the TEE, but understand it will give a better picture of my Tricuspid & its ability to function. I can tell from my shortness of breath & abdominal swelling that I am in a bad situation.
I am thankful that the diuretics are helping some.
It is so nice to have someone reach out. When something like this heart issue arises we can feel like we’re out here alone on an ice floe. Thanks again

May I ask how old you are? I am also in the same position, and I'm completely depressed and scared. It has taken a toll on my family,I have 3 younger children oldest is 10 and then 8, and the youngest at 6. I am in my 40s and can't seem to get a straight answer from my cardiologist about any treatment plans,besides the diuretics prescription. I completely understand what you are going through, and will look forward to any updates you may have.
