You Broke My Heart
Guest
Yesterday during a routine physical my doctor noticed a slight heart murmur. This is the first time this has been observed, including when I got my most recent medical a few months ago (although he didn't seem to be paying much attention). He said that most likely it's nothing, but suggested that I get an echo cardiogram, which has been scheduled for Friday.
Before going and getting the test done, I'm wondering two things:
1) How does (or doesn't) a heart murmur impact my medical?
2) How does (or doesn't) getting an echo cardiogram impact renewal of my medical?
The above two questions assume the test shows no problems. If it's something serious, then obviously that will have greater ramifications.
I have a second class medical which I need to keep. I'm otherwise healthy and in my mid-20s. No problems whatsoever getting my medical at this point, and I'd like to keep it that way.
Thanks in advance for advice from the gurus.
