Increase ur water intake and use less seasoning in your food. They say food with a lot of seasonings increase swelling.
All these sound like pre eclampsia. Go to the hospital right away. Don't wait for nothing.
I agree with the others, Brooke. It sounds like you have symptoms consistent with pre-eclampsia. The severe headache coupled with swelling and raised blood pressure should be checked.
Best wishes.
I would go to the ER right away. It sounds like pre eclampsia to me.
If you have a med stop in your town i would go immediately. . Salt sometimes makes you swell but not like you are explaining. . Sounds a lot more serious. Keep us updated.
My blood pressure is usually really low. Around 110/60 and yesterday it was 128/90. I told the nurse it was higher then normal, she said she was going to see what it usually is and let me know. But never said anything.
I had to leave a urine sample but they didnt say anything about it. But i have to do that everytime i go. Ive had a really bad headache since yesterday afternoon. So bad its making me sick to my stomach.
How was blood pressure yesterday?? Sudden excessive swelling could be a sign of pre eclampsia but that also comes with high blood pressure. Try staying off your feet and keep them elevated and see if it goes down. Also drink lots of water and just try to relax. If it doesn't get any better you should call the on call Dr or go to the hospital to be certain..
Did you have a urine test to check for protein in your urine?
Are you having any visual disturbances - spots, flashes?
Do you have a headache?
