Quietly seething and whittering!
Proff O report from 9/12/20 says " no evidence of cardiac failure" but an older report from my other cardio consultant reads like this ( copied exactly) " Bicuspid
aortic
valve with no significant
stenosis
or regurgitation on Echocardiogram,preserved biventricular size and function" I don't know what

Severe aortic stenosis diagnosis
Hi I'm new here, with the above diagnosis. Due another 'surveillance echo' in 6 months and no chance of 'elective' surgery due to coronavirus. Not sure what symptoms to look out for. I am feeling some niggly high back pain and the occasional need to take a really deep breath, but some of that could

Vibration Plate query
As well as having moderate to severe
Aortic
Stenosis
, I have early Parkinsons and osteoarthritis. I need to get fitter and improve my balance and muscle tone and thought a vibration plate may be useful.

Omron BP continually monitor reporting Atrial Fibrillation but ECG 'normal' anyone else experience this?
I had a stent in 2015 and have been advised I have a minor
stenosis
of the
aortic
valves. Other than that I am fit! (-: Any comments, in particular from anyone who has experienced AF reports from a BP monitor would be greatly appreciated.

Could this be a mistake
GP told me to shield because I have type 2 diabetes and there's a letter on my file saying that I have
aortic
stenosis
which was diagnosed by an echocardiogram 5 years ago but it's news to me. I have never been tested. GP is surprised that I haven't been monitored.

Echo Time Again
Yes I have severe
aortic
valve
stenosis
but am asymptomatic. Received very nice letter from my Cardiologist saying that at the moment they will just closely monitor. What I'm terrified of is that the reading will be awful, so awful that they will keep me in.

Hi, I’m new to the forum just after some wise words
I’m a 51 year old recently diagnosed with severe bicuspid
aortic
stenosis
. My consultant says I need open heart surgery in the next few months but everything is delayed because of Covid.

Very confused hearing that I've been diagnosed when I don't remember having echo cardiogram.
I was shocked yesterday when my GP said that I had
aortic
stenosis
. I did not know what an echocardiogram was until I googled it and I am positive that I have never had one.

Anaesthetic with Aortic Stenosis
Hi. I was diagnosed with moderate/severe AS last year. I now need a half-knee replacement revised into a full knee but the consensus appears to be not with AS, even though knees are usually done under spinal anaesthetic. Does anyone have experience of this or can advise? It could be years before I get

Confused
A heart murmur that does not cause you symptoms doesn't put you at high risk. " I have moderate-severe
aortic
stenosis
that will require a replacement valve. I am/was due a scan to assess for a TAVI so am I highest or higher risk??

How I overcame IBS-D
Dear all, I periodically post this advice to help new-comers to the subject. I consider myself a recovered IBS-sufferer and so like to share what I learned. I hope that you are keeping sane during the lockdown! This is my general approach to help people understand and repair their gastro-intestinal

Type 2 Diabetes potential home remedy cure
Type 2 diabetes (also called diabetes mellitus) results from the perfect storm of not enough movement, too much of the wrong foods, emotional stress, lack of sleep, toxins, and genetics. More often than not, patients with type 2 diabetes look towards natural medicine in addition to their conventional

Does anyone have a diagnosis of aortic stenosis at the same time as pmr?
I was told about 8 years ago that my heart murmur suggested a problem with my Aorta. About 18 months ago an echocardiograph showed aorta not to be functioning well. I was to be monitored in the community and had another echo in March 2019. A second was done in October 2019. Despite 5 calls to doctors
