Part : Actually a lot of the part that divides the chambers isnot moving properly . It has been damaged it does not show if the damage is permanent or not. That would be a question for your carsiologist

Coronary disease: Your test results are most appropriately discussed with you by your cardiologist and/or PCP. In the most general sense, your results show significant loss of utility in some of your heart's blood vessels and that's not a good thing. It's also not a new thing to you. Continue working w/ your medical team and following their recommendations. You might even seek a Health Psychologist to support you.
