Dear Friend ...
Welcome to Healthcare for your queries...

I read your concern and the sound is the result of turbulence inside the artery which causes the sound of the flow of blood to change. it results due to obstruction or narrowing of arteries as a result of dyslipidemia , DM ..
But early prevention has been taken with lipiids lowering medications therefore its not to be worried ... I also suggest you to Consult Cardiac Care Specialist and do an artery study that will help in reducing symptoms ..
Do not be panic as it is treatable ...

Ask me if you have any queries ...
Take Care
Regards
