[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... I have two questions first my wife s primary care doctor heard a heart murmur last year and she refereed her for testing, now almost a year later 3 doctors and a nurse have also heard the heart murmur, 14 years ago when she was pregant with our daughter she was prescribed breathin for preterm labor and she overdosed and her heart rate at the er was almost 275, could this have damaged her heart?
[|AI|]  Hellothanks for posting on Chat Doctor I can understand your concern. Breathing can cause increase in heart rate as it happened in her case. But surely not some heart valve damage. She may have the heart valve problem either from birth or maybe later acquired it due to some infection in childhood. Regardless whether she is symptom free or not, please do a 2 D ECHO. It will help to find the source if the murmur and the severity, so that you can treat accordingly. If echo shows mild to moderate valve leak then nothing had to be done. Just follow-ups. If sever she may require a surgery. So all depends on intensity of the murmur and 2 d echo reports. Wishing her good health thank you
