I had mucus from the throat, and it had minor blood in it. I went to the ER, and the blood pressure was 190/110.

I had blood tests, PTT, ECG and echo tests and everything came out normal. Can high blood pressure be the reason for this bloody mucus from the throat? I am feeling very anxious about this.
