If your blood pressure is 160/100 and have a bad headache , should you go to the emergency room?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: BP is quite high, headache prob from the bp, but could be cold, allergies or other reason. Would call your doc if they have someone oncall, if not call first thing in am. But, any confusion, weakness, numbness, tingling, confusion then yes call 911.
