Widowmaker and other Heart Problems Club
I'm on the watch list. I am 56. Been a low dose of BP med for 12 years now. 2 years ago, at my yearly, thw doc hears an irregular heartbeat. She can't believe I can't feel it. Sends me to a cardio doc. He said "Wow, you have a whole lot of skipped beats there, buddy". Did the contrast gated pictures laying in the donut. Heart strength and efficiency is 100%. However, my ascending aortic root is dilating. So I'm on a beta blocker to regulate my heart beat and see another heart doc yearly to track my aortic root. Once it hits a certain number in millimeters, major all day surgery will be scheduled. He estimates at about age 62.
