Why does the nape hurts when you get hypertensive? Why do you get dizzy? When you get dizzy, is it the organ of corti or a part of the brain that gets stirred thats why you feel that way? Why do you get nausea and vomitting?

Such symptoms are the sign of dangerous levels of blood pressure and require immediate medical attention.
