Have MVP With Trivial MR. Holter Shows VPCs And Dysrhythmic Pattern. Sinus Tachycardia. Meaning?

Hi I have been diagnosed with MVP (thickened hammocking anteior mitrel leaflet) with trivial MR (grade unknown ) and after wearing a holter for 24 hrs the report reads (writing hard to read) isolated VPCs including ventricular bigemisy pattern noted and signifigant dysrohythrimic pattern, sinus tachycardic observed with a heart rate of 148bpm. What does this mean?
My heart rate min was 46. Average 60 and max 148 while on the Holter?
Is it serious do you think, will i need medication
