Aortic Valve Replacement - The begining
I was diagnosed with
Aortic
Valve
Stenosis
due to a bicuspid valve, quite common apparently. I noticed the issue during exercising; Chest pain (angina), short of breath, but no matter how hard I breath I cant't catch my breath. This soon subsided when relaxing.

Echo result query
The RC and LC of the
aortic
valve appear partly fused but there is no significant
aortic
stenosis
or regurgitation. The
aortic
root is mildly dilated when indexed with the BSA.The absolute values are 3.5cm at the sinus of valsalva and 3.4cm at the ascending aorta.

Fetal Moderate Aortic Stenosis
Hi - last week my wife and I were told that our baby has moderate
aortic
stenosis
. My wife is 22 weeks pregnant and this is our first child. The stenographer noticed something may be wrong with the heart at the 20 week scan and the cardiologist confirmed the diagnosis in a follow up scan.

Aortic valve replacement
This was in 2016 when I was diagnosed as having "moderate/severe"
aortic
stenosis
. A year later I had some breathlessness while warming up in the gym and following a CT angiogram and a stress-echo I was now a clear "severe" diagnosis.

My Aortic Valve Replacement : The lead up to my operation and my decision on the type of valve (I chose the Edwards Inspiris Resilia).
Having first being diagnosed with
aortic
stenosis
in 2002, I had known for some time that I would eventually need to have something done, but it was only in very recent times as the problem became more severe that I started to show any symptoms.

Blood Pressure with Aortic Stenosis
Hello, So I am quite new to all of this and honestly I have never had any concerns surrounding my congenital heart disease. In fact whilst growing up I would often wonder why I would be visiting the hospital to go through regular assessments as a child, including key-hole balloon treatment at a young

Aortic valve replacement- the journey begins
I was diagnosed with Severe
Aortic
Stenosis
last month - bit of a shock to say the least. The pain/ache in my chest I put down to being less fit than I used to be and the shortness of breath I thought was because I was tired. Even when I got the diagnosis I was in still in denial.

Fast heart beat in night
Are sudden rapid heart beats an
aortic
stenosis
thing. Is it something I should report to my surgeon when only a one off and do other people with the same condition get this?

Too much exercise and I get sick
Complicated history as I have
aortic
stenosis
(weak heart valve) and I have been in atrial fibrillation. What I thought were symptoms of my stenosis was always exercise-induced asthma. I only discovered this about 4 years ago, around the same time I first had a-fib. I am 45 now.
