Wife ended up in the ER yesterday

I send her to work at the hospital where she has worked for 35 years or so and one of her friends call me on the desk and tells me she made Bev go over to the ER because her BP was 196/112. After they medicated her it only came down to 186/96. Her BP usually runs 110/70. Blurry vision, heavey legs and arms, dizzy, so they kept her overnight and are doing more tests today.

CAT scan showed a small spot which could mean some type of vascular incident.

She looked and talked O.K. but in retrospect she has been a little dizzy the last couple of weeks, but she just chalked that up to another sinus infection she was taking meds for.

What makes me thinks this is somewhat serious is I spent six hours with her yesterday in the ER and then in her room before I came home and she didn't pick on me or correct me once during that whole time.
