This site might be of interest to those of you with PFO's - I go on here quite regularly. For those of you saying - it'll never happen to me - we've had 3 diagnosed in our club in the last 12 months - me included:eek: , and none of us have ever had any other problem which would have made us think we had a hole in our hearts!
It a) makes me feel like my problem is quite minor compared to some! :D
& b) gives me people to talk to about a congenital heart problem, some of whom also didn't know about their problems till they were adults
Its the Grown - Up Congenital Heart Patients Forum, and they have a message board for posting your story, and to read others helpful advice...Its not angled at scuba divers as such, but is certainly relevant to those of us who have a congenital heart problem.
