Welcome to HCM. This means that you have heart disease and you have reversible ischemia/blockage due to thickened coronary to your heart from cholesterol deposition, the good news is that it is reversible and has been caught in time, hopefully measures can be made to correct the risk of getting a heart attack in the future, depending on other health issues and your age, medications, and a very healthy lifestyle is immediately advised, a heart catheterization may be advised. I hope this helps you out, good luck
