Yup, got an ecg yesterday and just got the results on my mychart today, it says one thing they tested was “indicative of a significant sized intricardiac shunt” between my left and right atrium, “shunt” being the medical word for a hole in the heart :,)

The grinch never had a hole in his heart though…? It was small and then it grew three sizes at the end

Like normal except a bit from one atrium leaks into the other, like this (also yy thought this was a nude💀)

The heart does in fact look like a penis

Either it leads to oxygenated blood going back to the lungs along with unoxygenated blood (what I have I think) or it leads to unoxygenated blood being pumped throughout the body along with oxygenated blood. The latter is much worse, though the former can also cause complications. There’s also a third type called a circular shunt that’s life-threatening since it causes some blood to stay in the heart and not go out to the rest of the body, but that one’s super uncommon
