Ya valafaxine can cause nausea also increase the blood pressure but i think you may be thinking a bit too much into it & must stop to overthink and also I would suggest you another antidepressant escitalopram 5 mg twice a day which i know would not cause this side effects also i would suggest you to check your bp in sleeping & sitting positon f/b standing position as it may be due to postural bp changes.Hope i answered you query.
