HI
Thanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.

Your symptoms can be explained due to high BP and it is quite high only . That too a high BP causing dizziness means it is causing some strain on your Brain.

You need to consult a Physician and get through evaluation of yourself because high blood pressure can cause damage to every organ in the body. So certain tests has to be conducted to check whether any damage has already occurred or not.

Also your physician will start you on BP medicine which you need to take daily without missing even one dose.

Apart from that you need to do low salt diet , that is avoid using excess of salt , avoid pickles , salted biscuits, chips , etc . Eat more fruits and vegetables.

Do aerobic exercises like Brisk walking , Jogging , Running , Cycling or Swimming at least 30 minutes every day .

Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

Regards.
