What Causes High BP,dizziness And Vomiting?
My husband is 57 years old, he suffers from hypertension but is on meds, I just took his bp and it shows 164/96, he got dizzy out of the blue about 2 hours ago and has been vomiting.... he will not go to the ER so now I m wondering what could be wrong.

hai,
sudden rise of Blood Pressure can be due to any stressful event whether emotional or medical.
however you are on Hypertension medication no need to worry. kindly recheck Blood pressure after 20 to 30 mins in a rest with relaxed condition
dizziness and vomiting can be also associated with anxiety or stress condition if there is no history of Heart attack and gastritis.
after a rest for one to 2 hour if the symptoms persist kindly go to the emergency department.
