What Does The EKG Report Indicate?

I had an ekg done today while having an issue of a rapid heart rate of 142. the doc said it was fine but the ekg says sinus tachycardia , possible septal infarct. , and borderline ECG... my question is should i ask to see a cardiologist? my mom has a heart valve issue and i know that they can be hereditary
