I've been having a hard time breathing when I'm lying down on either side. Could this be related to my lungs or heart? I'm feeling a bit worried. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?

I recently got my 2D Echo test results, and I'm trying to make sense of them. It mentioned things like mild thickening of the mitral valve, mild MR, mild concentric LVH, and that the chambers are normal with good LVRV function. There's also a mention of "No LV RWMA." I'm really wondering if these findings suggest a major issue with my heart or if it's more of a minor concern. I'm feeling a bit worried and would love some clarity on what this all means for my heart health.

MR treatment -diuretics,mital valve replacemet and repair .and blood thinners.like aspirin,brillinta,clopidogel and enoxaparin ,eliquis etc....
