Bicuspid Aortic Valve

I am a 31 year old female with a Bicuspid Aortic Valve and previous coartation repair as a child. I, of course, have aortic stenosis at that site. I was told as a child that I would probably have to have a valve replacement in my thirties. I have been experiencing some mild chest pain, lightheadedness (with mild exercise) and slight nausea with this. All of these symptoms are off & on. I was never told what the symptoms would be if this bicuspid valve and aortic stenosis should become a problem. Could you tell me if I should be concerned or not, and what the symptoms I may experience might be.
