A member asked:
Does the timing of a mumur matter if the echocardiogram comes back normal?

Depends : If echocardiogram is normal it is likely that you have no significant valvular abnormality . If the murmur is systolic it could represent an innocent flow murmur.

No not really: As echocardiogram should reveal any pathological valve disease...For the record, diastolic murmurs are never normal.
