About Me (In My Own Words)
My name is Lisa. I am a 55 year old wife, mom, educator and most importantly GIGI:). I was recently diagnosed with aortic stenosis and an aortic aneurysm due to an undiagnosed bicuspid aortic valve. They happened to discover the aortic stenosis by unfortunate happenstance when I was hospitalized for anemia . I did not have any symptoms. To say I was shocked..would be an understatement. ....Still processing. My biggest dilemma is deciding wether to go with a tissue valve or mechanical. I would love to hear from the community on their experiences. Due to my age, my doc is recommending the mechanical valve. Any advice, thoughts, or wisdom is appreciated:)).
