Just an update....
Was born with bicuspid aorta valve.. Plenty of check ups in my life.. Now at 41 they say my ascending aorta is 50mm (5cm) at the root.. This was via ultra sound... They sent me to have MRI done and said if it comes back as 50 mm they will talk to surgeon. Well results are back from MRI and yep... It's 50mm and I have now been referred to surgeon ... I have had no operations in my life... I am male 80kg in weight and have just started cholesterol tablets due to high choleratrol which is hereditary.
I am now getting slightly concerned.
Thanks for listening
