What Causes High Blood Pressure Along With Chills And Loose Bowels?

I have had spikes in my blood pressure along with chills and change in bowels. I m on medication as of 45 days ago and yet it spiked to 189/97. The episode of high BP, chills, belching and loose bowels last usually about 3 hours. Prior to the last six months I had no issues with BP or episodes like these. My doc ran all sorts of tests but all came back categorically normal. Now what? I feel off still since Fridays last episode. Thoughts?

Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration; need to drink more than usual to replace the fluids lost from vomiting and diarrhoea.
Get plenty of rest.
A course of ofloxacin and tinidazole should be taken for 5 days.
Start taking any over counter probiotic daily for few weeks.
