My blood pressure is too high!

Hi!
pretty new here. I've been on Atkins for 11 days now. I've followed it almost to a tee. Lost a few pounds, but I went to kickboxing the other night and felt like my head was going to explode and I was extremely weak afterwards. I went to Kmart last night to do a quick blood pressure test and my BP was
158/96. I tried it 3 times. My BP normaly runs 110/75. Has this happened to anyone else? BTW I do have an appt. with the Doc tomorrow. I'm afraid he will tell me to get off the diet or put me on meds. Any advice, suggestions? What can I take, eat, not eat to get it down naturally?
thanks,
Lori
