Cardiovascular health is so important to all of us. I blog here about healthy cardiovascular diets, low impact exercise, zen, hobbies, art & health metamorphosis. I have Marfan Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder & want to share about how to live a satisfied & healthy life - even when physically limited with a seriously damaged cardiovascular system. Amazing physical & emotional metamorphosis is possible! Join me on the journey.

Singing Aorta - Marfan Syndrome and Dissection
My aorta has been singing. On top of the 'itchies-bugs crawling', the clickity-clicking, vivid dreams, insomnia, chronic fatigue and..., now my aorta is singing. I call it 'harmonic pulsation'. When my heart beats, I am thinking my torn false lumen is flapping in the blood flow like a piece of paper held taught between two fingers. Since the tear extends down into my legs my entire body was humming last night every time my heart beat! This is so cool to have a stringed quartet inside me! Wow! I love life! xxx
