Hypertensive/Hepatic/Renal or Diabetic Encephalopathy? Something else?

I layed up for four years after college.

In the Walmart parking lot one night in 2017,

a few hours before I went home to sleep,

I consumed a 1lb bag of pretzels & 1.6 quarts of CALCIUM enriched orange juice

which was about 500 grams of sugar.

I woke up tingly and numb.

I started working in Sep 2018 and have medical benefits with my employer.

I didn't check my blood pressure even once until I was almost 29

after ongoing intracranial pressure that seems like encephalopathy set in last Aug,

and woke me up each night for about five days.

I don't know if it's diabetic, hepatic, hypertensive, or renal. It was 170/110.

I know way more about nutrition than I did then.

I know calcium is bad for blood pressure and magnesium is much preferable.

I know you don't need molybdenum often because your liver reuses it,

and selenium, manganese, chromium, and iron are similarly lower priority.

Mg, K, Cu, Zn, and I are the main minerals to worry about.

Vitamins A, D, and E are lower priority than B vitamins, C, and K.

Omega-3 and choline are concerns, but you'll get your aminos from pretty much whatever you eat.

I can't eat salt, excess calcium, or carbs without feeling pressure in my head

like a balloon inflated or a boiled egg slithered inside my brain causing it to press against the skull.

I also feel my heartbeat inside my skull, pressure behind+inside my eyes, and facial tingling when this happens.

I've had several episodes after trying to start an olive/avocado/algae oil keto where I felt

light headed, faint, tingly, and queasy that went away when I drank a couple swallows of something sugary.
