Is Drinking Too Much Milk Bad For My Heart ?

heart disease runs in my family and im scared of my dad having a heart attack and myself, i am healthy and do lots of sport etc i have been drinking A LOT of milk all my life (lpints of it!) and only recently has someone said it is not good for my heart because it is quite fattening, i drink semi skimmed which seems low in fat but seeing as ive drank so much is my heart at higher risk of giving out when im older ? (im only 16 at the mo tho)
