Hello,
Once you get the Bicuspid Valve(I'm assuming the Aortic Position) replaced you will have so much more energy. At 50 mine was all stiffened and not opening or closing completely. They called this condition Stenosis. Ask your Doctors about the condition status of the valve. I had and Aneurysm too but when that happened and needed surgery there was no time to do the valve. They did the valve 10 years later. I bet with you they will probably do both at the same time.

Stay well.

Indeed aortic valve bicuspid. They will do both at the same time. I have no issue with the valve, it is in good working condition. But they will try to repair it. At this time I have no lack of energy. I am a fitness buff. Its like i have no issues. Its more in the mental aspect. I just question how they are getting so different measurements. I live in Canada, operation options are limited. I am hoping to find a mini sternotomy operation vs, full sternotmy. I will be asking Cleveland Clinic for their opinion and see if they are my choice. Happy you are well and energenic.
