About Me

My TEE showed a 4.7 cm ascending aorta and bicuspid aortic valve. It says "very eccentric jet" and I am not really sure what that means. I have been looking up all of these terms to try to figure how soon is best for surgery. I now get retested every 6 months. All of the test results and information is a bit overwhelming and I am trying to learn as best I can.
