I'm 36 years old and was told for the first time today that I have a heart murmur... Come to find out my mom and my grandmother both have one too, so probably genetic, but I'm wondering why no doctor ever noticed before... Hmmm... My doctor this morning theorized that my weight loss and exercise made it more noticeable, maybe my old doctors just missed it. She doesn't think it is anything serious, but scheduled another test to make sure.
So, my question, heart murmur won't impact my exercise, right? I haven't experienced any dizzyness or chest pain in exercising, and I get my heart rate way on up there, around 170-185, pretty regularly...
