Keep cchecking it for a couple of days. If it persists then she should see her GP.

The doc took it and found it high, he put her on medication after a few days she was getting pains in her legs, she went back he took it again and it was even higher, he has changed her medication again, but she has a terrible headache, blurred vision and red cheeks are these all signs too??
