Dear Madam,
Thank you for posting your query on HCM.
I have gone through your entire problem and it may be due to the pain she had last night , sometimes pain activates the sympathetic system resulting in such episodes. I dont think there is anything to worry at present . Ask her to elevate her legs a bit while resting on bed . For nausea you may give her a domperidone tablet and ask her to sleep . She will feel fine once she she gets up . Only that she does not have to get up quickly .
Also if possible get her BP checked.
Take care.
