It's called "mitral valve prolapse", and 99% of the time it is a relatively harmless quirk. What it means is this: All heart valves are supposed to open and close at the same instant. In mitral valve prolapse, the mitral valve closes a tiny split-second later than it should. Through his stethoscope, instead of "lub-dub, lub-dub", the physician hears "lub-d-dub, lub d-dub" (and that's an over-exaggeration of it). Aside from that, you should have pressed the doctor to tell you all of this while you were in his office. You are paying him good money. You have a right to know exactly what he is talking about, in language you can understand. Oh, and I repeat what I started out with: The overwhelming majority of the time, MVP is harmless.
