I have heart conditions that causes mine to drop, if your daughter has been told ok by Cardiologists I wouldn't worry but if your really scared do to what the NP said maybe go get a second opinion from a different Cardiologists,

Second opinions are great and sometimes third and even fifth opinions. This is even more important when opinions contradict each other. good luck and all the best to you! 😎
