Annie's Echocardiogram

After meeting with Annie's pulmonologist, it was decided that she should have an echocardiogram to determine how much damage, if any, has been done to her heart as a result of 5 years of sleep apnea. Fortunately, the cardiologist said her heart looks perfectly normal! The only thing he did not comment on, however, was her high heart rate. Annie was asleep during the test, but I noticed the monitor showed her heart rate around 120! The nurse practitioner agreed that's not normal, but said the cardiologist didn't make any note of her heart rate. So we'll definitely have that monitored again at her next sleep study.
