What Does This Chest X-ray While Having Heart Palpitation Indicate?

I had bronchitis and was on zpac, steroid pack, inhaler for wheezing. Dr ordered chest x-ray and it showed hazing in lower lung. It was said it could be a calculi annulus. I have a heart murmur and it could be in the V alve or lung. Is this serious?

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that it seems to be a calcification in your chest X ray study, probably related to the heart valves.

Considering your heart murmur and this possible calcification, which could be in the heart valves, I would recommend performing a cardiac ultrasound to examine your heart function and structure.

Hope to have been helpful to you!

Wishing good health,

Dr. Iliri
