whenever once blood pressure goes up heart has to pump blood against high pressure so it is under stress so there are changes in the ecg. these Changes can also occur if someone has blocked arteries so to differentiate the two stress test will be done so that if blockage is present in arteries it will show changes in the ecg. so try to maintain your blood pressure in normal range and get those test done to rule out blocked arteries. Also get tested your lipid profile and sugar levels. healthy lifestyle And weight reduction is the key
