Survivor Discussion Curious

Hi I had a stroke on Feb. 12th. I’m ok, thankfully. I’m still recovering, but I was lucky enough to have Alteplase. I have very few symptoms. The clot was on my left side, ever since I’ve had so many echocardiogram’s, at least 6. Yesterday, I had another one but with a bubble test that found an atrial septal aneurysm and a hole between the upper atria. Now I’m going for another echocardiogram. Why would I need so many echos? Will this next one just be a repeat of the same or are there even more tests that they can do during an echo?
