I’ve been told by two surgeons now that I should have surgery in the next couple months to replace bicuspid aortic valve and replace ascending aorta because of aneurysm. When they say it’s an elective surgery I feel like I want to wait and prepare physically and mentally like you did. I need to look into what my refraction rate is but I’ve been told I have moderate to severe regurgitation of 30%. Left ventricle enlarged and ascending aorta measured at 4.9cm . Angiogram revealed no blockages in any arteries . Because of this and feeling really no major symptoms I’m thinking of putting this off until spring 2025 . You mentioned your heart doubled in size . Did they give you ascending aorta measurement? I appreciate any feedback !
thanks,
Angus
