About Me

I am 40 yo with a bicuspid aortic valve and AS. I had SOB, chest pain and orthopnea during my pregnancy, leading to delivery of my baby at 34 weeks by c-section back in December. Now that I am recovered from that surgery, it is time to replace the valve. I am looking forward to feeling better soon!
