Hi, ill try and help but i had just the opposite problem before my transplant. I had fast heart beat or tacocardia. But i will say when ever i had any test result i was always able to talk to my doctor and get questions answered. The only part i kinda recognize is calcium deposit in the aeorta. During my transplant the surgeon noted in his report that he found calcium deposits in my aeorta but found enough soft areas to clamp off during the transplant. I asked my regular cardiologist recently about it and he said don't worry about it that's pretty common as we get older btw im 60. I hope i helped. Good luck

I am seeing a new cardio, my other left the area. The new one has a excellent reputation in fact is my husbands cardio for 15 years. I did call the office about the Echo and the nurse I spoke with said if you received no call than don't worry, this needs to be watched for now. I see the cardio in Sept.
You had a heart transplant?
I have always had a low H/B also born with a murmur that I always had along with my 2 sisters

Thank you for being there. I guess everything stops working like it use when we age.
