About Me (In My Own Words)
I was having regular echocardiograms due to a suspected bicuspid aortic valve. As my condition showed no deterioration after many years I was dicharged in 2006. However about two years ago I suffered a viral infection leaving me breathless. My GP refered me back to the cardiology and my condition has deteriorated farly rapidly. I was told last December that I would need to have my valve replaced within 6-12 months. This was in the UK. I was due to join my husband who works in the USA so my cardiologist suggested I find a cardiologist in the US. I have now joined my husband and we are thinking of going to the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. I am feeling very scared and alone at the thought of surgery in another country even though family back in the UK say theUSA is probably one of the best places to have my surgery.
