Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can I can understand your concern.
Heart murmurs are commonly seen in valvular heart disease.
You are also having chest pain and breathing difficulty on walking upstairs, so possibility of heart failure dye to underlying valvular heart disease is more.
In severe cases, surgical correction is the only treatment.
So better get done ecg and 2d echo. 2d echo will tell you about severity of the valvular heart disease.
IThis will also decide whether you need surgery or cardiac supportive drugs.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
