About Me

I was diagnosed with moderate aortic reguritation about 3 years ago. Last year it became severe. Suffering from fatigue,palpitations..etc..mentally preparing to go forward. Apprehensive. . I am alone and dont have a strong support network like others on here. Concerned on how my mental state will affect my outcome. I have an appointment June 30 with cardiologist and Surgeon. As of June 22 symptoms continue to worsen. I'm getting more positve, although symptoms continue. Don't have a surgery date yet. Have a echo scheduled for 7-05 and a cardiac cath on 7-14. We'll see how to proceed from that.
