About Me

I have a bicuspid aortic valve. I was recently diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis and moderate regurgitation. I also have an aortic aneurysm and aortic coarctation. I'm 38. I will be having surgery soon - most likely within the next 6 months. If anyone else has all of these conditions I would love to hear what option you chose for surgery and what your outcome has been.
