    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    Thank you, kind friend. I am glad that I got to learn about aortic stenosis, nonetheless. They think the pulmonary hypertension was just coming from fluid in her lungs that built up after her seizure, raising greatly her arterial pressure. It's just weird how her numbers are all so...

    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    You are not going to believe this: My mother had another heart test done (very detailed). She no longer has mild aortic stenosis. They said she was misdiagnosed because she was severely anemic when the test was done. Go figure! Her jet peak velocity was 2.7 last year - now it's 1.8. All other...

    K2 and Calcium

    Calcification is usually age-related. The culprit is shortening of the telomerase in an older person. I've read that berberine and rapamycin can stop and reverse heart valve calcification. Also, there studies that show that Danazol (anabolic steroid) can indeed lengthen telomerase quite a bit...

    Echo readings

    Heart readings can improve over time, even in cases of calcium build-up, etc. Lifestyle, supplements, qigong, etc. can sometimes reverse downward trends. Rapamycin - a popular anti-aging drug - is known to repair atherosclerosis. My mother had severe anemia when she had a heart echo done the...

    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    Just a quick question? Is aortic valve velocity ratio an important number? My mother's is 0.63. Some sites say AVA is most important, while others go on and on about mean gradient and peak jet velocity. I can see that it's not always clear when someone is severe or moderate at times. I also...

    I agree. I just get scared. I am on a forum for bone marrow failure disease. It's been very helpful for me. I think this forum is very similar. I am going to learn a bit more about heart valve disease and contribute. Please take good care.

    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    Thank you so much, dear nobog, for your response. It was just strange that the cardiologist never thought it important to tell us she has mild aortic stenosis. When I found it about it (several months later), same thing: nothing to worry about. Her severe anemia may have made "flow" numbers a...

    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    Thank you, dear Superman, for your response. Nice to meet you, by the way. I suppose you're right. It was the cardiologist at the hospital who decided that there was no reason for her to see a cardiologist before I found out she had mild aortic stenosis (never mentioned it to me). So, if the...

    Never told about mother's Mild Aortic Stenosis

    Dear All, First, I hope you are all doing well and finding happiness and healing with your heart conditions. Secondly, I couldn't find any other forum online to discuss the issue of mild aortic stenosis. I know very little about heart conditions, etc, as no one in my family has ever had one...
