Welcome to your heart warriors program fightingcongenital heart disease. I am Belen Blanton,
one of the hosts of this programand I am also a warrior at
heart. This time I will bealone because my hostess, Marta, is
(00:21):
in her activities for her doctorate ineducation. Today' s program is how
a heart defect can trigger another conditionand in my case it was Isen Menger
syndrome. This content is not intendedto replace diagnostic advice or professional medical treatment.
(00:44):
The opinions expressed in this podcast arenot those of Horge Unighted Love,
but those of the hosts and guestsand they intend to generate a debate on
issues related to congenital heart disease.Many of you already know me. I
(01:06):
' m Belen Blanton and I'm the coprosentator of this podcast program.
If you heard in episode number one, you know a little bit about me,
but today I want to talk toyou about Isen Menger syndrome and I,
as you know, I was bornwith a congenital heart disease called thirteen.
Trecopita to thirteen means abnormal absence ornarrowing of an opening. This is
(01:36):
a condition in which the tricupine valveis not formed correctly. Or how it
happened to me I was born withoutthat valve. The valves in our heart
move blood from our heart to ourlungs in order to obtain oxygen, then
(01:59):
water the heart and then to therest of the body. If the valve
is narrowed or absent, the bloodcan build up in the heart and cause
congestive heart failure. I was luckythat my parents were able to fly me
(02:24):
from Venezuela to the United States forheart surgery when I was very young.
I was taken to the American ChildrenceHospirol and Dr Denton Coolin was the one
who did that Shon. The preachersgave me Dr. Cole put a mentricular
(02:50):
shunt in my heart, to helpmy body have proper oxygen blood, because
without that surgery I would have developedheart failure and died very young. Thanks
to that derivation or shont I findmyself in my fifties. That surgery definitely
(03:17):
saved my life, but my shameto say I didn' t really learn
about my heart condition until I movedhere to the United States, already an
adult. By that time my bodyhad suffered irreparable damage. Sometimes it'
(03:38):
s too dangerous to be more surgicalbecause the pulpons have been damaged. And
that' s my situation. Ihave a condition known as ise Menger syndrome.
People with Isen Menger syndrome have irregularblood flow to the heart and lungs.
(04:03):
That makes the tiny vessels in thelungs stiff and narrow. Anteronal persion
increases in the arteries of the lungsand causes what is called pulmonary hypertension.
As you realize every time I speak, I have to breathe very deeply.
(04:28):
You listen, because I don't get enough oxygen. Isen Menger syndrome
permanently damages the blood vessels in thelungs, but there is always good news,
and one can live with leisen Mengersyndrome. I have a good quality
(04:50):
of life even though I have thisheart and lung condition, and you will
wonder what allows my teacher to belike this. Well, I tell you
the secret. I have a goodattitude. I love life, I love
(05:11):
what I do. I like tohelp other people and most importantly, I
have excellent doctors and excellent medicines andtreatments to help me. I am being
seen in the Mayo clinic two medicinesthat are all called ambier stam and Tadalafin,
(05:35):
which help my lungs I also takemy ordaron and NOPSI to help with
atrial fibrillation. Here they tell tripwatter flation is a rhythm that is in
(05:55):
the upper cavities of my heart.My blood thinner is what it is to
keep me from having a stroke.I also take a lot more medications to
help control my congestive heart failure,although all of this may sound scary.
(06:15):
Education is power. Ten years ago, people were lucky enough to live until
they were forty years old and ifthey had the aarsen menger syndrome it was
a feat, that they lived fortyyears. Now, with new technology,
new medical treatment and good medical management, we don' t know how long
(06:42):
we can live and so I livemy day to day and am happy.
Only what I can recommend to peoplewho have congenital heart disease, who are
educated a lot, who study,who learn from heart disease with people,
because there are so many things thatcan be avoided. I didn' t
(07:05):
learn everything you had since I waslittle, I couldn' t stop you
from having this syndrome, and now, you live with a lot of medicine,
a lot of things, but I' m here and you can.
The other thing I want to tellyou is that if you tend any questions
(07:30):
or want to know more about LiisinMenger, you can write me to Belén
Blanton robbing warriors of the heart comand I will gladly answer you there.
I just want to tell you toplease keep fighting so that this episode of
heart warriors ends. Thanks for listeningto me. If you have enjoyed this
