I’ve been diagnosed with a Bicuspid Aortic Valve with Valve regurgitation and a Dilated Aortic Root. I’m 26 and this has all been picked up on since a medical at work in December, The type of surgery is open heart and I’m on a 6 month waiting list.
I’m struggling a bit mentally with the news and I currently have a 2 week old daughter which has made it more difficult to process as I worry about the recovery process and helping my wife with our daughter and being off work. Is there any support out there that I can reach out to as doctors at hospital recommend my GP and my GP doesn’t respond to the online process I have to follow.
