About Me (In My Own Words)
I was diagnosed w BAVD 18 months ago at age 56, after many episodes of presyncope and dizziness upon standing, as well as increased fatigue. At my one year check up my pressure had jumped quite dramatically and stenosis went from moderate to severe. So then I was told I needed valve replacement within two months. It was quite a shock, as I figured surgery would be years away.
