I know I have already posted on this but now have a bit more information from GP. Ds (aged 8)had a heart murmur picked this week in hospital. He has had lots of different problems over the last year or so ( thankfully nothing serious) that has needed to be checked by hospital drs and this has never been picked up before. His murmur has been described as soft systolic. We are now waiting for an appointment with a cardiologist but don't know how long this will take. Trying not to panic but can anyone tell me what soft systolic means as trying to stay away from google. Also had a dental gum abcess a few months ago that has now resolved. Could this have anything to do with it?
