Hi @marydada. I see you are posting after recently joining Mayo Clinic Connect. Welcome! I assume by HLHS you are referring to hypoplastic left heart syndrome.

I do not know anything about the condition other than a summary of what I read from Mayo Clinic. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a rare heart condition that a child is born with. The right side of the hearts has to do overtime to make up for the left side that hasn’t developed fully.

Here is a link to the HLHS Blog here on Connect you may want to check out as you wait for others to comment.

If you are comfortable sharing it may help others to know how to comment. What is your experience with HLHS?
