An irregular heart beat is just that, a heart that beats irregularly--not in proper rhythm. A murmur is something you hear when you're listening to a patient's chest with a stethoscope, in addition, the murmur is a sound that you don't hear in a normal heart.
Well, if you're experiencing symptoms like bad chest pain and fainting spells, then you should see someone. But if you're just feeling panicked over the feelings in your chest, then don't worry about it.

Is it okay for me to do serious exercise?

Like I said, if you're not experiencing bad symptoms, then yeah, it's fine.

Oh yeah, and the 'attacks' always seem worse at night when im in bed. Is that normal?

Yeah...there are a lot of conditions that, for some reason, tend to be more prevalent at night. As to why exactly this happens, I couldn't tell you.
