Reduced blood supply: Ischemia means reduced blood supply to a part or muscle. The LAD refers to one wall of the heart. This means you should follow up with your doctor or a cardiologist. You are at risk for heart disease, but it doesn't tell you how great is the risk.

Blood flow: Reversible ischemia means that an area of your heart muscle is not getting adequate blood flow (at times) but then the blood flow "catches up" (i.e. Reversible). The LAD is the left anterior descending coronary artery - it's an important blood vessel. The LAD may have a blockage - would recommend seeing your cardiologist.
