Hello,
I would explain that these blood pressure fluctuations are not very common after concussion.
For this reason, I would recommend checking thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction and some other blood lab tests (complete blood count, PCR, ESR, kidney and liver function tests).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
