Dear sir
Yes indeed high blood pressure causes nausea and headache.
It is a known fact and even it increases the risk of stroke and coronary event.
It needs immediate attention and it is essenstial to lower the blood pressure below 130/80 mm of hg.
Calcium channel blockers are safe drugs to do it.
Thanks
