Severe aortic stenosis

Severe aortic stenosis. How sick have some of you been prior to getting valve repacement op. Consultant that did angiogram got into his head I was symptom less. I feel as though I have been abandoned. Very scary when chest pain really ramps up.

Which type of aortic valve replacement is right for me?

I have just found out that I have severe aortic stenosis and have been referred for a replacement valve. I am a keen climber, bouldering mainly. Should I get mechanical or tissue? Can you climb hard on warferin? Anyone got experience of this?

Mild Aortic Stenosis

Hi, I was recently told I have mild aortic stenosis and await an MRI to assess the aortic valve, possibly bicuspid. I currently take no medication, and experience facial and left ear numbness. I also suffer blurred vision from time to time.

Hello! Does anyone else live with a BAV? I was looking for a local support group to join but there isn’t one in my town. Glad I found this online group!

Hello from a newbie

I'm new on here, having been diagnosed with bicuspid aortic stenosis. My consultant has told me I'm now ready for a valve replacement. I'd like to chat to others who have had an aortic valve replacement.

Anyone recovering well from tavi?

I had a tavi in May after unexpectedly finding out I had severe aortic stenosis. At first I was recovering well but now feel I am going downhill. I am sometimes waking up feeling very light headed and a bit nauseous.
