Lyn, it took about a week for me to recover but now I am back to where I was before the cath. I will be seeing a new cardiologist this week and then to the surgeon for a second opinion.

I have thought about your comments. I know I do need AVR soon. I will see another surgeon for a second opinion and proceed from there. Thanks all of you for being there.

Thanks to all of you for your responses. I just wanted to give you an update on what is happening now with me. About 3weeks ago, I had another echo and saw my cardiologist afterwards. This time he felt it would be a good time to have a preliminary consultation with a surgeon to talk about timing...
Dear Deanne
More hugs and prayers coming your way...May you feel the comfort, the strength and unfailing love of the Lord uplifting you.
God be with you.

Praying that everthing proceeds smoothly for you...
My prayers are with you Tbone for a successful surgery and a quick recovery.

Ross,
I don't have the sweating or double vision with the dizziness.
What I experience is just an extreme sudden lightheadedness when I feel I will blackout but I have never actually blacked out...
Hi everyone. I am a new member and glad to have found this wonderful forum. I am 60 years old and been aware for a few years that I have a bicuspid aortic valve. We moved 2 years ago from Cleveland to Marietta, Georgia and had to find all new doctors here.
