We have a family history of hbp on my husband's side of the family. My husband at 32 yrs has had readings between 74 - 95/125 - 140.

I want to watch out for my 3 yr old son, who had been diagnosed with a bi-cuspid aeotic valve with mild to medium stenosis. We learnt from his last echo a month ago that his heart is slightly enlarged(not a big change in the stenosis numbers). I had read somewhere that hbp could sometimes cause the heart to enlarge.

Please advise!
