What Causes Heart Murmur With Blurred Vision And Dizziness?
has recently found out my 6yr old daughter has a grade 4 heart murmur & is waiting for a heart scan. my sister died at the age of 3yrs of a congenital heart defect & as u can amagine im very freaked out by the discovery my daughter has a murmur.my daughter has been getting dizzy, having panic attacks, blurred vision & nose bleeds & we've been told the symptoms she has been getting are not from the head injury she had a few mths ago which is what we 1st thought but from the heart murmur. although ive been told not to worry, they said she wont have her scan for at least 4mths. she suffers from chest infection alot as well. im so worried i cant sleep.

hello,
She can have hole in heart, for confirming it we should get one echo done as early as possible.
As such hole in a heart, is a treatable condition either with device closure which is minor procedure or if hole size is big, then by surgery. So you should see a paediatric cardiologist and get echo done and further management.
