@hopeful33250 Thanks Teresa. I'm not worried, I tend not to be so when something bad does happens I'm always surprised! I guess I was borderline 11 months ago in the tests so they just want to check again. According to what I read on the link the only possible symptom I have is my BP is currently running from the high 130s to about 170. I am sort of hyper recently so I don't know if there is a connection. I feel like I'm on speed or something! Prior to transplant my systolic was in the 115 range prior to transplant and my diastolic in the 60s which it still is.

@contentandwell I am considered "borderline" as well. If you don't mind sharing the info would you tell me what the Echo shows the number as? Teresa

@hopeful33250 Hi Teresa, the results are not showing on the portal so I will have to wait until tomorrow to find out. If I recall correctly they did used to show but I think some of the doctors did not like patients to have that information prior to their doctor visit. When I do find out I certainly do not mind sharing.

@hopeful33250 Hi Teresa, I had my appointment and it went well. In the morning I got an email that my test results were posted in the portal so I quickly printed them out so I could discuss the numbers with the doctor. I think all but one were within range and the doctor was not concerned at all. Basically they were better than they were pre-transplant so I have no future appointments scheduled.
You ask what the number is but there are many numbers and I do not see one number that would summarize. What number are you referring to?
JK

@contentandwell I'm glad that your Echo showed such great improvement. I sent you a private email message regarding the number I was talking about. Thanks! Teresa

@windwalker Hi, if that question is directed to me, I had a liver transplant in September, 2016.

My cardiologist says less than 60 is moderate anymore than that is moderate/severe. The numbers objective and the level is subjective

@ronbee Sorry Ron, but I am having trouble putting your message within the train of messages and am not sure what the 60 is to which you are referring. Is that an ECHO result?
Thanks.

60 is the measure of hypertension that my cardiologist uses, as have other cardiologists. It is objective but there is one value in the 60 that needs to be estimated and in my case it has been 8 to 10
