Post partum Eclampsia is your working diagnosis since it is high blood pressure with headache. MRI has ruled out cortical vein thrombosis.
Next Steps
Monitor Blood pressure twice a day for a week and note in a diary
Take Tablet Labetalol 100 mg twice a day for a week
Low salt diet
Take rest in a quite dark room
Health Tips
If diastolic blood pressure is still more than 90 add Tablet Metoprolol XL 25 mg twice a day for a week
Avoid spicy and fried foods
Watch for vomitting or low urine production or fever or pain abdomen
