How tall are you?: Echo measurements are based on average people. You can normalize the measurements to body surface are for really tall or big people. If you are around normal size than just using the regular measurements are typically good enough. Borderline means that you are right at the upper limit of normal. If you have no symptoms then you should prob just get a repeat echo in a year.
