What Causes Elevated BP And Frequent Headaches?

I had someone check my blood pressure at work today once in the morning which was 130/98 because I had a sudden headache. I had her take it again in the afternoon which was 132/96. I just took it again and it is 146/110. I have been noticing I have been getting frequent headaches lately.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

These values may be the start of high blood pressure even though I don't know your normal blood pressure. Headache may come from this. I recommend you to monitor your blood pressure and to start a treatment for it. If the headache stops after lowering your blood pressure ,that means that the problem had come from blood pressure. If not, you may need to visit to a neurologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
