Adam's Tests

Adam's heart was acting up. He went to the Doctor's Friday then a Cardiologist on Monday for an echo cardiogram (Heart ultrasound) and had to wear a heart monitor for 24 hours. We won't find out the results for awhile. So if you could keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We're hoping it's nothing serious. We just got really concerned when the flutters or palpitations got worse and more frequent! :) And he has 3 cases of heart defects and disease in his family. We just pray that its this thing our doctor called it (already forgot the name) but it would be a no big deal type of condition which would be nice :)

Here are some pictures from his 24 heart monitor.. Crazy huh?

During the monitoring:

And after he pulled them off:
And there are still marks! :)

Oh Dear!! Adam is WAY too young to be having heart problems!! And those left-over circles look fun too! Did the doctor say "premature ventricular contractions" or something like that? where the ventricles in the heart beat a little too soon? They say those are nothing to worry about (haha)... that's what I get from time to time and what sent me to the ER ... but I'm almost 50!! Did they do bloodwork as well to test for cholesterol levels etc?
