I just got my ECG results back from a health check-up, and it's showing a Left Axis Deviation. I've never had any BP problems, and my blood pressure during the exam was 13080. What could be causing the Left Axis Deviation? Should I be worried about it?

I'm having these weird palpitations and short jerks in my chest lasting just a couple of seconds, but it's not like they happen at any specific time. It really feels awkward when it happens, almost like my heart stops for a moment. What's strange is that even though I exercise regularly, I don't feel any pain in my chest. I've done ECG, 2D Echo, and Holter tests, and they all came back normal. So, Im really wondering, do you think I might have some sort of cardiac blockage? Are these episodes a sign of something serious like a cardiac arrest in the future? Or if it's not something major with my heart, what else could be causing these jerks and palpitations?

Thta could be due to anxiety ,vsist Psychiatrist for appropriat ehelp

I'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?
