Major headache

[mvp529]

Looks like my blood pressure is high. Since I work at a hospital, had the nurses take it. 157/88 and 3 hrs later 144/91

Midwife says that before 20 weeks it's considered chronic hypertension, meaning I had it before pg. but I have never had htn and it is checked pretty often. So she thinks I am having a migraine that is causing the rise. We called me in migraine meds.

Nurses also did a urine dip that was fine. So who knows. I will make sure I keep an eye on it.

Thx so much. Just took it again and it's pretty good 122/68. So it does seem to be associated with the pain of my headache. Praise God. I don't want chronic issues or a stroke!
