Welcome! Please Introduce Yourself.

Welcome to our community! We’d love to learn a little about what has brought you here.

  1. Hi, I m Mary, I have peripheral artery disease, carotid artery disease and some artery in my abdomen... Can't remember the name. It's challenging everyday but I take it one day at a time. I have a few stents to help my leg. I'd love to hear someone's experience with a similar situation 😊

    1. I am a 71 year old woman and I was diagnosed with severe aortic valve stenosis. There are surgical options, but nothing has been scheduled yet as I am not currently exhibiting symptoms, but I do get mild heart palpitations when I start to worry. I feel fine otherwise!

      1. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I’m glad to hear you're not currently exhibiting symptoms, and it’s reassuring to know there are options available if symptoms develop — although hopefully, your condition remains stable. You've come to the right place, as we're here to support you with all things cardiovascular. If you have any questions or need support, we’re here for you.Wishing you all the best. John. community moderator.

    2. Have micro vascular heart disease with coronary heart disease with atrial fib.

      1. Thanks for sharing with us. Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, you seem to be dealing with a lot. How are you coping with your heart disease? Also what topics would you be interested in reading about and or learning about when it comes to your heart diseases? -Olivia

    3. I'm now 65, I was diagnosed w/Prostate Cancer in 2018 - just prior to that I was diagnosed w/Bradycardia & Mitral Prolapse/Regurgitation. During scans I do show a slight Aortic Stenosis. I look for all information regarding health and research that may help with my various diagnosis.

      1. Hi. Again. Sorry that you are also having to deal with prostrate cancer along with your heart conditions. I am not too familiar with prostrate cancer, although we are all about everything having to do with the heart and blood vessels. If there are any specific topics you would like to learn more about, please feel free to let us know anytime. And either myself or one of my fellow moderators/ team members will get back with you. Wishing you all the best. John. community moderator.
