heart murmur

[Blindbeggar83]

hi guys, just been told I got a murmur. Need to have ecg in a few weeks.

I had chest pain the other evening- just wondering if they can cause heart attack? I don’t think I’ve had one, but I’m a silly hypochondriac and I’m supposed to be going away tomorrow.

HiMy sister was born with a murmur due to a hole in her heart, she's never had any treatment for it & she's never had a HA, she's 68 yo. I would have thought if your Dr was concerned they wouldn't wait, they'd do the ECG quickly,most of not all surgeries have an ECG machine, or they'd refer you to hospital.

I note that you're going on holiday tomorrow/today. If you're going abroad I would check that your travel insurance will still cover you as waiting for the ECG could be deemed as 'under investigation '

Good luck 🤞
