Hi Avhjoin

I would recommend you sit down and discuss your condition with your cardiologist. A benign murmur would not need monitoring; I appreciate your comment about doctors wanting to protect themselves but it doesnt really work like that.....the issue we often see is that the doctor makes a diagnosis and says nothing needs to be done but doesnt realise the career issues down the line. I may be over critical but you need to ask if there is an increased risk of the heart deteriorating and or needing treatment in the future. If so how likely, and if not why the need for holters and US???? Only then can you make a rational decision with regards to your future career. Best wishes
