I am still under the impression the TTE was done improperly to check as there was no bubble test done but I certainly have no merit to conclude that as fact. My next appt isn't until November 1 so we'll see what they have to say. As far as diving goes, I've been diving for a year and a half with no other problems. However wreckless it may seem I will continue to dive but keep the deco to a minimum and will not do any trimix diving. The image shows the profile of that dive.
Don't share your belief that the Shunt could be small, since the OP also mentions that he has Migranes. AFAIK most people who suffer from migranes also have a PFO. Getting your PFO closed also usually eliminates the reoccurance of migranes, and also significantly reduces the risk of suffering a stroke.
Doesn't matter what it costs, have the shunt fixed.
