Re: anyone have an adult heart mumur?

Sorry to hear about your recent discovery, but it's possible they are wrong. I was told that I had a slight heart murmur, and I thought it was so weird that it was never picked up before -- I got 2 other opinions and both said that the first Dr must have been crazy - there was nothing wrong with me!!! Go for the test, it may prove the MD wrong.

Re: anyone have an adult heart mumur?

my doc said i had a slight heart murmur, then i went for all the tests, and nothing was wrong with my heart. no explanation given. Could be a fluke.

Re: anyone have an adult heart mumur?

Mine was found when I was around 26. I had to wear a monitor for 24 hours and that was it. Mine is not the serious kind. The only ramifications I have from it is that I have to take 2000mg of anitbiotics 1 hour prior to going to the dentist. Try not to stress yourself too much Jen. You take great care of yourself and that is most important!

I was just diagnosed with a heart mumur in September! Its under further investigation because I never had one and I was on Vioxx. I am so sorry to hear about your resent diagnosis!

Re: anyone have an adult heart mumur?

i was just diagnosed last summer, and as swags said, i need to take antibiotics before i go to the dentist. it doesn't affect me at all other than that.

Same thing for me as well, I don't think it is a big issue as what people make it sound, my family has it and everyone is in good health. It is hereditary. Just take care of yourself Jenny.
