The first thing I'd tell you: Try not to worry. I know, it's not easy.

Is the bed rest your idea, or your doctor's?

Heart murmurs are common and much can be done about them. Since you don't know what kind you have, it's problematic to give any real advice.

Be good to yourself!

I hope all will be well.
