@Catalyst87 which causes me to have a high heart rate which they say it’s palpitations and anxiety and the doctor said I was born like that with the valve that doesn’t open correctly which is aortic stenosis brother but still gotta live each day to survive and help others who may be suffering more then me like this brothers here who have worser aortic stenosis live well, eat well,be well, and to end it not having health is not having happiness in a person or animal brother
@Catalyst87 well when I go for a check up with my doctor I do order him well tell him to give me a complete physical check up comrade and if I have something wrong I do actually obligate him to give me further studies and I have a minor aortic stenosis but they say it’s minor that I could live like that and I don’t need surgery because my heart functions normally they say so yep I’m kind of worried and I go to the physiciatric or what ever the name because they tell me I have anxiety problemsbro
You’re exactly the type of person that makes me question my wisdom in getting an MD. I don’t practice in the United States, which protects me from the bulk of the litigation you seem to recommend, but you still raise an interesting point. Patients (even backed by Wikipedia and WebMD) don’t generally understand lab tests and symptoms and the need for a CLINICAL CONTEXT before ordering them. It’s clear you’re trolling (and I’m feeding you) but you don’t have the “rite” to “order” your doctor…
Ok for all of you who have this questions every can get a heart disease or any valve whatever the age you are even baby’s get in a heart disease in there mothers womb there is treatment for some conditions but if you feel your having a heart attack feeling call an ambulance or go to your doctor and tell him you want further studies you have the rite order your doctor for further and deeper studies or if he doesn’t and something happens to you, you could fine him for negligence so there brothers
youll know the symtoms as it gets worst you wont be able to walk across the room i had the symtoms that were discussed here and more but get it done dont mess around i suffered 3 years with it second opinion i would get more if need be but you know when your not feeling right
I have aoritc stenosis, but Im not sure how severe my symptoms are. Its hard to compare with others. I feel some heavy breathing just now writing this text. But I hva been tested thoroughlly, and Im just on the “above the surface”, so to speak.
Anyone been through this who would explain how the symptoms manifest themselves? thx!
I have this, with a .8 dialation. I’m 30 and pretty much asymptomatic, except since coming back from the cardiologist, I have all these weird symptoms, dunno if they are in my head or not.
I have Moderate Aortic Stenosis With a severe Leak
nice job explaining that,
hello johnnie9607! I wish u the best of luck in ur upcoming surgery… My dad is 85y/o and has the same condition so i understand what you’re dealing with…
I am 21 years old i was born with AS and I have Aortic Regurgitation…I am going to have to have my surgery soon….I have been told several times that I have a condition that is usually in 80 year old men…
ho really? i actually never knew that
b/c u have what is called “bicuspid” valves.
mine isnt too bad, I go to the doctor every 6 months or so for tests, but Ive only been on medicine so far.
