To comply with something means "to act or be in accordance with wishes, requests, or demands. Complied is a better answer here than followed because "followed with the nurse's instructions" would not be grammatically correct.
Agreed is not as good of an answer because you can agree with instructions, but you won't see any benefit unless you also act upon those instructions. This is why complied is still a stronger answer.
