hello thanks for posting here
your BP was quite high during the episode. this accountd for your light headedness. muscle twitching can be due to low calcium levels. Please check your calcium and vitamin d levels. The doctor has started you on a medication to decrease your BP. Please check your BP regularly. If it is persistently high despite taking tab azor then another BP medication has to be added.
thank you
