a little concered need to be at ease make sure all is fine.

had an echo stress test ekg and holster test all was fine. got the echo results and now im worried because of all the findings don't seem normal. any help will be great to put my mind at ease.

General Findings
The image quality was fair (3).
  Left Ventricle
The left ventricular cavity size and wall thickness are normal. Left ventricular systolic function is normal. There are no segmental left ventricular wall motion abnormalities noted. The estimated ejection fraction is 73% (Normal 50-75%). The left ventricular ejection fraction was measured by the single dimension method.
  Right Ventricle
The right ventricular size is normal. The right ventricular systolic function is normal. RV function quantitative parameters are in the table below.
  Left Atrium
The left atrium is borderline dilated. The pulmonary venous Doppler systolic velocity is blunted.
  Right Atrium
The right atrium is normal in size.
  Aortic Valve
The aortic valve is tricuspid. There is no evidence of valvular aortic stenosis. The LVOT velocity is 1.1 m/s. There is evidence of trace aortic regurgitation by color and spectral Doppler. Ascending aorta above sinotubular junction was not well visualized.
  Mitral Valve
There is no evidence of mitral valve prolapse. There is trace to mild mitral regurgitation detected by spectral and color Doppler. There is systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the chordal apparatus which is a normal variant.
  Tricuspid Valve
There is evidence of trace tricuspid regurgitation by color and spectral Doppler. The RV systolic pressure was estimated from the peak TV regurgitant velocity (assuming an RA pressure of 10 mmHg). The estimated RV systolic pressure is 37 mmHg.
  Pulmonic Valve
There is evidence of mild pulmonary regurgitation by color and spectral Doppler.
  Coronary Arteries
The coronary arteries were not well visualized.
  Pericardium
There is no evidence of pericardial effusion. There is evidence of epicardial fat.
  Comparison Findings
No prior studies for comparison.

I did only a quick read but it all looks good/normal to me.  Your doctor would tell you if some action was needed or if there as any sign of a heart problem.
