yeah - no kidding! Sal has had a cardiac US done several times due to his 
bout with endocarditis so his heart work level and rate have been well 
documented. Sometime the ride vets have to go get someone else to listen to 
make SURE they are hearing what they are hearing.  I was the positive side to 
almost losing Sal that we found that he does indeed have one incredibly tough 
heart muscle - low HR and very good output. His CO was noted as rather 
dramatic especially given his condition at the time.
