Brief Answer:
neurologist opinion

Hello XXXX, this is a serious issue and you should not take it lightly.
Visit a neurologist or at least a physician as soon as possible.
Till then see her blood pressure at least twice a day and maintain a chart and in case it stays on higher side then start tablet amlodipine 5 mg at night.
Ask her to take a salt restricted diet and don't let her go out or stay alone in the house.
