This question is for Darcy Green Conaway, MD
General Cardiology/ Ecocardiology or other Heart specialist who can answer my question
I was diagnosed with a small heart Murmur 11 years ago when I was pregnant with my son. Doctors told me it was small and it was nothing to worry about. My mother and her side of her family have Congestive Heart Failure. I need to know, will I developed this problem when I get older. I will be 40 this year. I had a stress test, and the results were good. My heart is strong and in good condition. I am a very healthy woman according to my doctor. I am just curious to know this. Some People can have a small problem with their heart, like a small heart Murmur and later in life develop problems, because of family history. At this time, my doctor can barely hear my mummur, and sometimes you can’t hear it at all. Should I worry about heart disease?
