Hello again

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the feedback.

If her blood pressure stays above 140/80 mmhg then this numbness can happen because of that also. Also sometimes in hypertensives patients due to sudden hike in blood pressure headache or numbness happens.

Kindly monitor her blood pressure regularly and if it stays above 140/80 then her medicines has to be adjusted.

Also make sure she take them regularly on proper time and in diet the salt intake should be reduced for proper bp control.

I hope this information will guide you properly.
