What Does This ECG Report Indicate?

I had an ECG done yesterday as part of the pre-op for surgery on Nov 11. The report listed: Probable left atrial abnormality and Right atrial abnormality. I had an ECG in May 2016 by a cardiologist prior to my bilateral mastectomy, but was told all was OK, but did confirm that I had a very slight heart murmur. I had an echo a few years ago but was told it was not anything to worry about. What does this most recent ECG mean?
