Hi all,

Hope you’re all well. Today, all my 3 children had their first cardiologist appointment, their ages are twins 2 years old and 7 year old. Interestingly, heart structure, valves (No BAV), ecg, blood pressure and pulse are all normal, however, all the 3 of them, their aorta is enlarged, it’s actually quite big from the sinuses to the ascending. The cardiologist said that he will review them in 2 years time. He told us that we don’t need to worry at all, and they can carry on with anything they want to do, sports etc.

Obviously I am concerned, however, I was also wondering whether the enlargement is just normal for my children and myself, I don't know! Maybe we are a bit over the average!....

Anyways, I thought I share this with you.
