Hello,
The fact that you had a hypotensive episode, vomiting and dizziness don't mean that you may have cerebral oedema.
You should continue the everyday antihypertensive medications as advised by a doctor. Maybe you should increase dose in order not to have a crisis.
You also can use nifedipine at the beginning of the crisis episodes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
