Any Murmur: With a diastolic component necessitates echo examination. Usually diastolic murmurs are associated with bicuspid aortic valves that do not completely close when they are supposed to, and result in backward flow of blood into the ventricle when the heart is relaxed. What you describe, though apparently mild, is pretty classic for that. Get an echo, I'm sure your doctor recommended one.
