Listen "Living with cc-TGA (heart defect)"

Episode Synopsis

The most common cyanotic congenital heart defect that presents in the first month after birth is transposition of the great arteries (TGA) -- dextro-TGA (d-TGA) and levo-TGA (l-TGA) or congenitally corrected TGA (also known as cc-TGA). Because cc-TGA is rarer than d-TGA, it's not often spoken about. On this show we'll have two adult survivors with cc-TGA talk about what it's like living with cc-TGA, how it's affected their lives and what advice they have for parents of babies with cc-TGA.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heart-to-heart-with-anna--1256958/support.
