Hello dear, Welcome to HCM. I read your query and understand your concern. It is obvious that her headache comes from high blood pressure . This high blood pressure apart from headache is dangerous and threatens her life. Send her to doctor as soon as possible to give another medication to lower blood pressure.
Take care.
