He is not hurting though, and you would think he would be hurting if it were gas.

I just don't know but things are not right in his belly - since the ultrasound didn't show anything, maybe it will be OK soon and I should stop worrying.

He got up to walk without oxygen and his oxygen number dropped to 83 - it is supposed to be above 90, and that makes everyone nervous. But we have an oxygen monitor at home and his oxygen drops to 85 when he walks for any length of time - so this is not that much worse. He gets more short of breath than usual, and I think that is normal for all the stress that has been put on his heart.

Yet, I can't help but worry that something else is going on.......
