Does Atorvastatin Cause Nausea, Sweating And Elevated BP?

I took double dose of my atorvastatin by mistake. during the night I awoke with nauseous, and blood pressure of 182/82
I was shaky and sweating, I got something to eat and drink, water. after 20 mins. my blood pressure was back to normal and my other symptoms, shakiness and sweating stopped. I am 74 yrs old male.
this morning everything seems normal. should I cancel this mornings dose and will I be ok now?
