About Me (In My Own Words)
I have a bicuspid aorta valve. I have an aortic root aneurysm which is dilated at 4.9cm.
My surgery is scheduled for June 20, 2025. It's over 3 months away, however I do feel lots of anxiety thinking about it. I can only assume that the anxiety will increase as the date approaches. Sometimes, searching the internet for specific information related to my bicuspid aortic valve, actually increases my stress. I am in the care of Stanford Hospital cardiologists. My surgeon reassures me that all will be fine, which I appreciate. But still????? Any suggestions. A million thanks!! Nasser.
