What Causes Swollen Face And Vomiting After Colonoscopy?

My mom just had a colonoscopy Sat am. She never felt good after. Groggy and sleepy, then threw up at 5am Sunday am. Admited to hospital, face is swollen, slightly dark in color, threw up more, blood pressure is sky high. Was 286 when admited on Sun am. Got it down to 186, tonight back to normal around 126/70. Got medication for it. Hospital did lots of testing, but is not known what could be the cause. Any experience with symtoms such as these? Thanks.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, as far as the symptoms are concern, it could be due to some post investigation complications (Colonscopy procedure ) but for the tests that is being done, unless know what kind of test it was done, nothing can be said for sure, hope this information helps, take care.
