Got the results phone call today and am more confused then ever!! Waiting to get my copy of the report in the mail still. anyways a bit of back story, diagnosed in February with BAV with mild stenosis (valve area 1.4-1.6). Had another echo in July which showed valve area down to 1.1-1.2 as well as ascending aortic aneurysm of 4.1. Doc wanted quarterly echos due to fast progression. Went on Monday (10/15) for my first quarterly. During the echo I was kinda questioning things, because the process was totally different then normal and didn't take near as long. Got finished with it and fast forward to today. The nurse called and said everything was perfect. So I ask her what the valve area was, she said she couldn't find anything in the report that said. Ok I let that one go, figured I would find it once I got my copy in the mail. So I then ask her what the size of the aneurysm was, her response was what aneurysm. I said the one that was mentioned in my echo in July. She looks through my chart and sees that yes it states it, goes on to say that this report gives my root at 3.1. Says it doesn't mention anything about the ascending being dialated at all. I told her I want an appt to talk to my cardio about all this, so I go this wednesday. Sorry so long, just confused.
