This time brain city scan was performed which turned out normal,  X-RAY was done.The doctor gave her anti anxiety meds,paracetamol and continued the antibiotic.Still, on and off fever was experienced until after @ days in the hospital,she was discharged last Saturday-January 8,2011.She rested at home,until this morning she again vomited,had  the numbness experience and the blood pressure went high.The cardiologist did not give her medicine for high blood pressure.How do you assess the symptoms and the patient's condition since we the family are in worried situation?Please give us advise on how to tackle this,what are we going to do.Hoping for a prompt response.Good day!

I am a bit confused.  Was a chest x-ray done and was it ok?  What is the antibiotic?  

What medical problems does she have?  How old is she?  

Last bp reading?  

Anti-anxiety meds?   Does she have a history or anxiety?  Sometimes anti-anxiety meds can be used for nausea and vomiting.  

Sounds like she should be back in the hospital and monitored.  

Sorry for all the questions.
