Pulmonary stenosis and corona virus.

So I’m 23 and have a heart condition, no meds but frequent check ups. Do I need to be cautious and start to think about self isolating? I’m really confused.

My son has pulmonary and aortic stenosis he had open heart when he was little. He's 14 now and I'm wondering if i need to keep him home? Im going to ring the hospital tomorrow for advise but like you I've come on here to see what people know while I wait. My gut tells me not to take any chances.

I have had no advise despite ringing my local go to which they said there’s nothing I need to know and the receptionist wouldn’t let me speak to a doctor. I don’t know who to ring at the hospital as my consultant travels to see me and other patients. My gut is saying the same.
