Feeling Light Headed,heart Murmur ,shortness Of Breath& Dizziness

I have had a heart murmur since a newborn, the doctors said it was an innocent heart murmur but these past few weeks i have been feeling lightheaded, shortness of breath, dizziness, and i have fainted a couple of times.Could it be that my heart murmur isn't innocent anymore?

Hello
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
You should get your echocardiogram done.As heart murmur though benign may be responsible for your symptoms.If echo is normal then we should look for other causes not related to heart .
