Heart Murmur Because of rapid weightloss?

Went to see my OBGYN the other day. She asked me to go and see my PCP in the immediate future in order to have him look further into what she heard while taking a listen to my heart. She seems to think I have developed a heart murmur and thinks it's related to my rapid weight loss. I have an appt to see my PCP and discuss/sxplore this further. But, in the mean time, I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I found nothing in the library referencing this problem. Pre-surgery, I was given and EKG which I passed no problem and have no history of heart problems except high blood pressure. I have to admit, I am a little nervous and scared (even though this could be a little thing) I know about and was prepared for a host of of other complications- but not this one. It's come out of left field. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
