Heart attack: It sounds like an echo report describing previous damage the the wall between the ventricles (septum) and tip of the heart (apex) likely from a previous heart attack.

Consequences: Description is very typical reflection for consequences of long term uncontrolled high cholesterol and blood pressure. I also guess that you might have had heart attack in past. (silent infarct?). Practically this mean that your heart is no longer as efficient pumping blood through your body as it used to be. You definitely need to be under care and see your doctor regularly to avoid worsening.
