? question ?: You listed some non specific data but did not ask a question. If your GD's murmur was not noticed before 5, and her body is ? swelling ? ,that and a sed rate of 22 don't point to any specific diagnosis. To make it to 5 rules out many of the scary heart defects, but not other problems.She should be under the care of a physician who can assess her needs and refer her to specialists if needed.
