What Is The Remedy For Heart Murmur Having Weak Immune System And No Spleen?

I was exposed to Black mold for 2 years, I was rolling around in it and working in it with out proper gear. I m 43 now I went in for my yearly check up and now I have a heart murmur. Never had one before! I m not saying it s the mold that caused it, I have just been reading up on a lot of mold issues and now I m not sure. I would object to working in those Building s that had mold in because I don t have a Spleen and I have a weak immune system. I m not talking a little black mold, I am talking about from the floor, walls, ceiling and every where else.

Cardiologist,  's  Response
Dear Sir/Madam
Thanks for writing to us.
A heart murmur has many causes. They may serious or trivial. Best answer is to see your cardiologist and get a cardiac ultrasound after his advise. An ECHO or cardiac ultrasound is the procedure for choice for evaluating a heart murmur.
This may be related to mold or may be unrelated. However if exposure to mold is only 2 years old, an effect on heart is unlikely. Effects on heart are usually secondary to long standing bad effects on lungs.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
