I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

I just got my ECG report back, and it says "sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia." Should I be concerned about this? Do I need to see a specialist or get a further consultation? How serious could this be?
Sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia is a common finding in ECG reports and is usually not a cause for concern. It typically does not require any specific treatment unless it is causing symptoms such as dizziness or fainting. In most cases, it does not indicate a serious underlying heart condition. If you are not experiencing any symptoms, no further consultation is necessary.

My dad had heart bypass surgery about 3 years ago at Ushamullapudi Hospital, and now his heart has gotten larger. He's really having trouble with breathing. He's 60 years old. What could be causing this and what should we do next?
He may benefit from medications such as Carvedilol (Coreg) to help reduce the workload on his heart and improve his symptoms. The typical starting dose for Carvedilol is 3.125 mg twice a day, which can be gradually increased as tolerated. Additionally, he may also be prescribed Furosemide (Lasix) to help reduce fluid buildup in his body and relieve his breathing difficulties. The usual starting dose for Furosemide is 20-80 mg per day, depending on his kidney function and fluid status. It is crucial for him to follow up with his cardiologist regularly for monitoring and adjustments to his medication regimen.
