About Me (In My Own Words)
I had a bicuspid aortic valve, and my cardiologist and I have been watching it for years. Early this fall the echo results showed that the stenosis had advanced to “severe”. After much research, decided on full open heart surgery and aortic valve replacement. I’m currently 9 weeks post surgery, and feeling pretty good, though somewhat fatigued and minor chest muscular-skeletal pain. Overall, not bad, but chomping at the bit to get back to something resembling normal.
