Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
High blood pressure at this young age needs aggressive investigation and management.
If it is 'occasional' - causes like Pheochromocytoma may have to be investigated.
No curable cause should be missed.
Association with other symptoms again point to the need for further assessment and assistance.
You should see an Internist / earlier, the better
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
