Oh! Yes! Just this month! How weird. I thought “ooh did I write that post and forgot??!”. Mine is retro aortic I think. Waiting for letter from cardiology post ct angiogram but my rheumy read up results (he’s a rheumy remember) and said all nonchalant “ yes well lots of people have anomalous artery, here it is - yes you have it.. everything else is normal.. anyway let’s get back to your blah blah blah”. Well I have mod aortic regurgitation, paroxysmal AF but much better since ablation, ectopic and beats... so not normal, but thanks! He said not to worry, but the cardiologist didn’t seem to feel that way - I can only guess it’s not too bad.. but then I need to hear from my cardiology top man, not my rheumy! Are you worried? What else have they said? And what else are your diagnoses? Take care x
