Heart murmurs are often completely non-symptomatic, and essentially safe. Lots of people have them. Basically, some of the blood pumping through the heart is backflowing due to a slightly leaky valve, and this causes a slight "swooshing" noise when the doctor is listening to the heart. It's often discovered completely by accident when looking at other stuff-as in your case. I'm afraid I know more about it in horses, but there are Grand National runners who have heart murmurs, so they don't necessarily affect you all that much. Scans are a good idea, to find out how much of an issue there is. Two roads diverged in a wood and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference. (R. Frost) | |
