About Me

Wow where to start. I will be 60 in April, married to a wonderful man and no kids. We are gamers, I play World of Warcraft. 3 years ago during a preop exam I was told I had a murmur. Mind you I was 57 and had never heard this before. I was sent to a cardiologist and they did an echo and found I had bicuspid arotic stenosis that was the high end of mild. He said I was ok to have my ACDF surgery (neck fusion C 5-7) which I had and doing well after that. This year it got much worse, I did all the testing, my last test was the cath lab, no blockages (thank God) and tomorrow I see the surgeon. I am still flip flopping on natural vs mechanical.
