Just had a scan and was told I have a heart murmur. I have been experiencing fainting , I have episodes of fainting and then it goes away, blood pressure is up sometimes. What do you suggest. Had pain in chest about four years ago, had a special blood test done, kept in and told I had a mild heart attack. Next day doctor came round and said I could go home. Told no follow up was needed?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, you should definitely concern about your symptoms. You are having heart murmur and had fainting attacks, chest pain etc. These are suggestive of arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) more. Arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, supra ventricular tachycardia etc. can cause similar symptoms. If not treated promptly, they can be life-threatening. So better to consult cardiologist and get done ECG, 2d echo and Holder monitoring (24 hour continuous monitoring of ECG). On the basis of reports, you will need anti arrhythmia Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
