(Please read all the way through before answering thanks)The doctor told me when I got a check up that I had an inncocent murmur.It scared me.I had never been told that I had a murmur before.They assured me that it wasn't anything.Both doctors that I had seen told me that.I also hear my pulse in my ears which that was why I was there to start with.Its a pathological condition but I can still hear my heartbeat.It has worried me so much that I lay around and don't do the things I used to and out of shape now.If I get up and get doing things I get out of breath and tired.We live in an high altitude which i didnt have problems with breathing until I found that I had am murmur.I never breathe hard.Is it the fact that I have lain around for two months why im feeling out of breath and tired or could it be that my heart has a worst condition.Also was diagnosed Post Tramatic Stress.depression makes you tired too?

Functional heart murmurs caused by rushing of blood through the valve are very common. I think your symptoms are mental rather than organic.

I'm no Dr but if they say it's fine its fine
go to one more Dr a specialist
I had a heart murmur when i was 14 & that was donkey years ago
my daughter had one when she was 5 & she is grown up & married
Hubby had one last year & he still has it & all the Drs say its nothing
people get them if they are a bit unwell
i fainted when i had mine & it has never come back same as my daughter she had a cold
you might be having panic attacks why you can't breathe
& if you have been lying around doing nothing you will get weaker & weaker & out of condition
it only takes a short time to get unfit
see another Dr & then start walking etc or you will die from being unfit

Hearing a murmur means that we are able to hear the flow of blood and this is common and in most cases it is not associated with an underlying abnormality. In fact murmurs are heard in up to 30% of normal children. Hearing your pulse is also common and generally due to swelling in the nose which decreases the appreciation of sound across the eardrum making other sounds seem 'louder'. It sounds as if your level of concern may be a factor in your symptoms.

Experience has taught me when diagnosed with something that will be a life long condition it does make one depressed, scared.
I grew up with a gal with what you have. She has lived her hole life with it. She does have to take care of herself but on the outside is very healthy looking....
Idle hands is the devils playground, have you ever herd this saying? The more you dwell on something the more you are going to hurt or whatever. All of us do this at one point or another! Find something to do with your time!
Do reading about your condition, knowledge is power. I am sorry about your condition and hope you live a long, long life...
