stressing

[mummymelza]

I can't sleep tonight. High blood pressure last doc visit. Now on meds for it. Low iron levels. Bad swelling and pains in.feet and ankles. Exhaustion. Lower back pain. Underactive thyriod. I've been reading and some of the symptoms sound like pre eclampsia. What do you think?

Thanks ladies. I'm going get a heap of tests done tomorrow. Then in to the doc a couple of days later once results are in. I'm currently 31 weeks so hopefully we can hold out at least another 5

hi you have pre eclampsia..
i had it with my oldest daughter. it can be fatal in some cases..
im currently 32wks with my 3rd baby and iv got a bit of protein in my urine.. each doc visit they will keep a very close eye on ur urine..
good luck

Your doctor or midwives should test your urine, if you've got protein in it then it could be pre aclampsia. I'm suffering with high bp as well but no other problems so been told to rest and take it easy! Try not to worry although I know that's easier said than done.
