Sure, here's a rephrased version of the user's query: I've been having chest pains off and on for a couple of days and got an ECG done. Here's what the results say: Vent rate is 73 bpm, PR interval is 114 ms, QRS duration is 94 ms, QTQTc is 388427 ms, and the PRT axes are 64, 52, and 25. I'm really not sure if these numbers are normal. Should I be taking any special precautions, especially since the pain keeps showing up in different parts of my body at different times?

I've been dealing with anxiety since the pandemic started, and it's been causing my blood pressure to creep up to around 140100. I was on Metasartan 25mg for a while but stopped it following my doctor's advice. All my heart-related tests like TMT, ECHO, ECG, and Troponin have come back normal. I checked my blood pressure a couple of weeks ago over four days, and it was 13084, 10282, 12485, and 12082. This was after stopping the BP meds. Are these readings normal, and should I be worried? My TSH is 2, lipid total is 197, LDL is 124, triglycerides are 244, and HDL is 37. There's no family history of heart issues, and all the elders in my family are pretty healthy, with many living past 70. What do you think?
It is good that your TMT, ECHO, ECG, and Troponin tests were normal. Your blood pressure readings seem to be within an acceptable range, although it is important to monitor them regularly. Considering your lipid profile, you may benefit from lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and regular exercise to improve your lipid levels. In addition, since you have a history of anxiety disorder, managing stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques or therapy may also help in controlling your blood pressure. If your blood pressure continues to fluctuate or if you have any concerning symptoms, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
