heart position

hi, I had an echocardiogram today (I’ve had them before) but this time I was told my heart was shifted to the right a little? I think she said median? No-one has mentioned before? I am due an angiogram in a couple of months. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks

I was diagnosed with congenital heart disease late in life and part of it was a 'misplaced heart' '''slightly to one side of where it 'ought' to be. I did not query it as other issues came up in relation to the congenital situation but maybe it is not unusual?
