Hi, My name is Ma. Cristina Ablanida, 25 years old and have a Pentalogy of Fallot, a congenital heart disease.When I was young I only have Tetralogy of Fallot. It means I had a 3 problems in my heart and a collateral. Tetralogy of Fallot is a birth defect that affects normal blood flow through the heart. It happens when a baby's heart does not form correctly as the baby grows and develops in the mother's womb during pregnancy. Now I have 5 problems and it called Pentalogy of Fallot. Pentalogy of Fallot (POF) is a variant of the more common Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), including pulmonary stenosis (PS), a ventricular septal defect, right ventricular hypertrophy, and an overriding aorta with the addition of an atrial septal defect (ASD), and there is no epidemiological report.I thought I could live a normal life with this case cause I feel fine, I even graduated college and began working. But last month I had a mild stroke and my doctor says that my heart is still in progress and I could have a heart failure anytime.
