moderate aortic valve leaking
by Pam323, Oct 04, 2009 09:01PM
I have been told I have moderate aortic valve leaking which causes shortness of breath. What causes that to happen?
Does it get worse over time? Is that something that comes with age or have I always had it? I have been told I should have another echo cardiogram in a year. I have been prescribed a statin drug. Is there any thing else I should do or be alert to.
