About Me

Diagnosis in 2018- echo showed mild- 2021 moderate- 2022 moderate/severe- Things have changed from 2022. I had an echo last week Feb 9, 2023 and the valve area which should be 3.0 cm is now .91 cm. with symptoms changing so gradual over a year, it was hard for me to determine side effects. They have decided to have me do a stress test next week Thursday to see if exercise will bring on symptoms. If it does, I will be set up to see a surgeon. I will update next week.
