26 Weeks Need Your Help
Posted: 10-14-04 13:49pm

Im now 26 weeks going on 27 on sunday and I just had an appointment on monday the 11th. My blood pressure was high but they said they would wait until next appointment to check it again and see how it goes. What will they do if it remains high does anyone know. What happens if your blood pressure rises.

Not exactly sure what will happen with high blood pressure, but I do know this. My father has had high blood pressure for about 10 years now and in order to keep his down, he tries to eat foods that aren't high in cholesterol and sodium. Also try to stay away from any thickening foods like gravy it clogs arteries. And whenever possible take walks to exercise. Have you been stressed out lately? I heard that tremendous amounts of stress can play a role with high blood pressure too.
