Hi ladies,
I'm lookin for some advice. I've had a rough pregnancy but with the 4th one, its kind of expected. I'm knackered basically, with 3 boys 5 and under its bloody hard work. Ive not kept greatly and ive had extra scans etc, being epileptic and from passing blood and parts of what looks like a show. But basically all there is ok, my cerviz is moving so I'm to feet up and not over-do it.
The last few days however I've been having problems with my eyes. I've had a mild headache. Like a dull pain. I put the blurryness down to that. This am i work up feeling pretty terrible. I went to bed with a headache and work up with even worse vision than previously. Ity had so far been mainly my right eye. It has now improved in my left eye again. I feel sickly and have terrible heartburn, hence why i was thinking I felt sick. Went to the doc this morning, Ive a little blood and a little protein in my urine. My bp is in normal range, although thats still high for me, I normally have very low bp. My doc sent away bloods and urine sample. Telling me I'm showinf all the signs of preecampsia. Without the excessive bp, although he says a rise is indicative, in early stages.
Could I really have it? Anyone ive known with it has had very high bp and its all been doom and gloom. I'm worried now and not keen on going to hosp. Although doc says if any worsening or no improvement then I should be going. Not easy with 3 young kids!
Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated
