It means just what your doctor said, that your heart was beating too fast. There are a number of causes and at 16 you are very young to have this. but don't worry sweetie if he was really concerned he would have sent you for tests. If you are still worried or just for piece of mind go back to him with a parent or friend to establish what is exactly wrong with you, if you still get no joy go and see another doctor.
