About Me (In My Own Words)
During a routine annual physical my primary doctor noticed a murmur that she didn't like, so she ordered an Echo. After I had the echo done I had to speak with a cardiologist and that was when I was informed I have a bicuspid aortic valve and aortic dilation and it needed to be addressed surgically. Opon further pre op testing they found that my right coronary artery is 100 percent blocked but my body has created collateral blood flow to keep me alive.
