How often should patients be getting ECGs? How often are YOU getting ECGs?

HI,, ppl with BMD should have their hearts checked at least once a year.  My son has both an EKG & echo done every year since diagnosed.  Nick's heart doctors said he has a 50/50 chance of developing heart problems..I actually think the number are higher than that.  so it's very important.

 

regards,
