I'm feeling a strange sensation in my left arm for the past couple of days. Its not painful, just odd, and my blood pressure is around 13080. I'm a bit concerned if this could be related to some heart issues. Could this be something serious? What should I look out for?

ecg and cardiac markers are advised.

I just came across the term "borderline short PR interval" in my medical report, and I'm really curious about what it actually means. Is it something that I should be worried about? What could be causing it, and are there any specific treatments for it? I'm trying to understand if there are any risks involved and if I need to take any precautions. Would love some insight!
