We both have a bicuspid valve and while I don't have an aneurysm my aorta is slightly enlarged and needs work. I have no other issues, zero calcium score, no blockages. Can you tell me what kind of valve was used and what they did to repair your aorta? Did they tell you how long this would last? I have been told I wouldn't need any longer term medication, is that your situation as well?
