echocardiogram results

I took redux for several months before it was taken off the market. I had an echocardiogram two weeks ago and just got the results. I am not sure what the results mean to me and where I should go from here.
The results state that there is "trivial mitral insufficiency and a mild increase in left atrial dimension". There is also mention of "a tiny amount of posterior percardial fuluid"
My question is, "Now what?"
