I Have Been Taking Korean Red Ginseng For Over 3

I have been taking Korean Red Ginseng for over 3 months and was recently diagnosed with a heart murmur. Upon doing some research I just learned this is a side effect of the Ginseng. On top of that, I see Ginger is a no no combination. I have been snacking on organic crystallized ginger a lot lately. I have an appointment with a cardiologist on Nov. 7th. Is this something that shouldn't wait ? What can I do , other than stop eating ginger. I stopped taking ginseng a week ago, but still have murmur.
