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 trying to understand what "STT abnormalities elevation" means on an ECG report. Could you explain what this might indicate? I'm a little worried about what this means for my heart health.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
