@Dr. Polepally Praveen Kumar Do update with further investigations as suggested by @Dr. Sanjay Tarlekar
SAH
MRI brain give antiepileptic drugs
Hypertensive encephalopathy with bilateral cerebral infarcts
I agree with Dr.S.Tariekar.
Sah suspected as per history not there in CT..Young hypertensive think of pheochromocytoma/ paraganglioma..Evaluate..Or NW reduce BP with available drugs
