Can Fasting Help Identify A Heart Problem?

My doctor diagnosed me with a heart murmur, and he believes that when I fast it has some part in making matters worse. He wants me to fast before I do the test. Is it true that something will show up on the test if there is something wrong with a person's heart when it comes to fasting?
