Susan's Guestbook

Welcome Susan and Happy New Year, 2026 is going to be a great year for us with new aortic valves!  You’ve come to the right place as there is so much information available about our condition thanks to Adam Pick.  Thanks for sharing your story as it’s extremely similar to mine.  I was always telling my wife I wonder if the bad experience with Covid I had contributed to my aortic regurgitation.  I feel that it did as it went from mild to now severe in November with dizziness and feeling like I’m going to faint
I’m having my open heart surgery  this Tuesday in Toronto Canada replacing my aortic valve and replacing my ascending aorta to fix an aneurysm.  I’m ready to get this over with, be more active and feel good again!  Feel free to ask any questions on here as patients are happy to share information and encouragement!  You got this! 

take care,

Angus
