High blood pressure does not cause co-ordination problems or headaches, these are side effects of some medications taken for hypertension.  Co-ordination problems, loss of balance, sudden dizziness may lead to syncope or stroke. Get physically examined, evaluated & treated without much delay. Balancing problems occur in hypertensive crises (180/120), if you have it, you need medical attention. Get connected to your treating physician.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  </s>
