About Me

Thank you for adding me to your group ❤️ I am so happy I found others who are going/gone through what I am about to. I was recently diagnosed with severe aortic regurgitation and having a bicuspid valve. I am scheduled for an MRI and an angiogram over the next few weeks. My mom had bicuspid valve replacement at my age and passed away 4 years ago from cardiac issues. To say I am nervous about this would be an understatement 😕. The surgeon said my heart is enlarged and surgery is definite. Trying to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can.
