Gday Neil,

Yeap I got a referrel to a specialist who did a full echocardiogram and unfortonalty nothing was found except a beating heart (much to my GFs suprise) so now I am talking to Dr Ryan about other tests that will 100% rule that out.

Cameron.
I believe some of the more definitive tests involve injecting you with some bubbles (I think they use CO2), and seeing if they go from right heart to left heart with various manoevres. I forget the details though.

You mention that the hits were on "easy dives", is there a possibility that when you are on no-deco dives your ascents are a bit quick, whereas having to do stops obviously slows you, and you are getting bent on the no-stop ones?
