Hi,
You seem to have hypo tension normally. Normal adult blood pressure is 120/80 on an average.Now to have sudden rise in BP for a hypo tensive lady, means pressure has raised by 54 mm /34 mm - which definitely is significant.
You need to consult a physician ,get yourself thoroughly examined& investigated for any cardiac or endocrine disorder. The specific medicines can then be advised.You have to take them as per suggestions of the doctor.
Thanks.
