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'm dealing with a high blood pressure reading of 13693 and I typically only manage to get about 5 to 6 hours of sleep each night. Could this lack of sleep be affecting my blood pressure levels? Although Ive had some mild anxiety in the past, Im feeling alright now, yet my blood pressure remains high. Is this normal or should I consider starting medication, or would making changes to my lifestyle be sufficient to manage it? What would you recommend?
Lack of sleep can indeed impact your blood pressure. In addition to lifestyle changes, you may benefit from medication to help manage your high blood pressure. I recommend you start taking Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) 50mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make sure to get enough sleep each night. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing activities can also help in managing your anxiety and blood pressure.
