Hi, I'm 33. I was diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve at Christmas through an echo. A further TEE last month reveals that I definitly have this condition. The results shows no enlargement of the left venticle and shows everything else to be in good health, however it shows mild to moderate leaking of the aortic valve. I've no symptons. I've led an active lifestyle, attending the gym serveral times a week. I stopped this lifestyle since being diagnosed bicuspid. I asked the junior cardioligist who I was attending if I can attend the gym again. I got a cautious answer... 'because I've mild to moderate leaking then I should stick to moderate exercise.'
My question to you is about yoga.... and specifically 'Bikram yoga' (which is a form of yoga that's practised in an environment of 105 degrees Fahrenheit with a humidity of 40%.
Is this a big no no for someone with my condition? All thoughts are welcomed, thanks
