Suggest Care Needed For Boy With VSD Having Pulmonary Lungs Pressure

I have a son of 11 yrs. age. He has a VSD in his heart. He is not in a position to operate & close down his VSD, because of his high pulmonary lungs pressure. He is taking Penegra 25 , 1/2 twice a day. His weight & height is normal. Previously he has some Breathing problem but now he is ok. Some doctors said that he will live only 27 to 28 years, some said that 2-3 years. For this reason I have lost my husband in a road accident. Now I want to know can u help me any way by prescribing diet,mediciness. ?

Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that he should continue taking penegra and kindly consult a pediatric cardiologist personally for proper physical and diagnostic evaluation so that proper medical support can be provided to your son and to make him able to undergo VSD closure.

Hopefully this information will answer your query.
