I have a BAV and ascending aneurysm. The valve is 1 cm2 with mean gradient of 52mm hg and the aneurysm is 4.8cm. I am for the most part asymptomatic; a little shortness of breath when I start running but it goes away after I warm up.
I was referred by cardiologist to "begin discussing" surgery. Once at the surgeons office I was advised by the surgeon to have surgery in 6-8 weeks; a bit sooner that I was expecting.
I am in the process of getting 2nd opinions but was curious as to how the timing went for other folks with similar issues.
Thanks!
