Brief Answer:
No!

Detailed Answer:
HI,

There is no reason to go to the emergency room. Monitor your blood pressure to make sure it stays at values greater than 110/80. Only go to the emergency room if you have blood pressure readings lower than this or develop symptoms of dizziness, fatigue, vertigo and racing heart.

I hope this guides. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
