Darn. I've been pysching myself up to go up there, get a CT scan and meet with the surgical folks this Thursday. Today, they called to re-schedule because the doctor has to go out of town for something.
It's a let down and now I have to go through this interminable waiting all over again.
An interesting note was the lady who schedules for the doctor told me they have 6 guys with the same bicuspid aortic valve issue I have, ranging in ages from early 30's to early 70's. One of the others has apparently decided not to do anything until he has symptoms-no echos, no follow up, nothing. That doesn't seem wise to me.
I guess that is a good thing to have a number of AVR patients in addition to the mitral valve and other patients he has.
But I feel let down. I was really looking forward to getting some answers. Maybe next week!
