I have very high blood pressure..

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The rashes are probably from allergy – inhaled, ingested, contact... Since it is extensive, see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and appropriate advice.
If the tests for heart attack are inconclusive, they have to be repeated after a time. More tests like isotope stress ECG or angiogram may be necessary depending on the clinical situation...A cardiologist can assess and help further.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
