Brief Answer:
Better to go the ER for a prompt check-up

Detailed Answer:
Hello ! Thank you for posting your question to HCM .

You should go to the emergency room since it is getting worse ( Could be a migraine sign). They will check your medications for any side effect and to do some examinations (neurologic and check your vision).

If you write the name of the medications I will help you with the information if they have or haven't this side effect but in any case you should be checked by a local doctor .

Hope this help.
Take Care !
Dr Balliu !
