Hello , The history you give and the treatment described suggests that The pulmonary pressures are very high and so any form of operation will do more harm than any benefit. So the best treatment here is to Continue medicine . There is no problem in getting marriage however you should avoid pregnancy by all means as pregnacy can put your life in danger . However an objective guidance is only possible after seeing the data of the pulmonary pressure ( the last Echocardiography) and previously the angiography ( Cath ) study . Dr. Sivakumar, Head of pediatric cardiology in MMM is the best person you can maintain follow up with. Reagrds Dr. Mody
