I Need Some Advice!! Please!!!!! Posted: 08-27-06 21:17pm
My blood pressure keeps going down!! My
lips have started to peel so im guessing
im dehydrated! Today I cant eat and I can
only drink a lil and then im full from
that. My chest hurts and so does my left
side of my body, it feels like someone
over weight is sitting on me. I called
the on call ob/gyn yesterday and she said
keep hydrated. Well im trying but its not
working. My bpressure has dropped to 66
over 48. Im getting weak and im dizzy.
Should I just go to the er or just keep
trying to force my self to drink?

I just read online that you could have low
bp because your blood is going to the
baby. Make sure to stay hydrated, and add
more salt to your diet.
But the article did say to see your doctor
if you feel dizzy, weak, or have a fever.
I hope you feel better soon!

66/48????????
Yes, damn girl get yourself to that er
i can't remember which way round but one
number should never fall below 100 and the
other number should never go above 200.
They are both under 100 and you feel dizzy
and weak (not suprising) go to the er.
Be safe

I called the oncall ob/gyn. .A.Ga.I.N
theres like 4 other then my doc that works
at that hospital so I didnt get to talk to
her this time either. They always tell
their patients to call them irst to see
what they think instead of sitting for 6
hours at the .E.R and he just told me to
stay in bed and drink lots of fluids!
Gah, I swear he didnt listen to me at all
when I said thats all I been doing. When
I woke up this morning it was still low.
They are closed on mondays so I dont know.
I have had an appetite this morning and I
ate quite a bit, and my bp went back up to
90 somthing over 80. Im not in pain
anymore so im happy. Im just gunna have
to start eating something every hour. But
when I go sept 20 to the doc, im definatly
going to tell her what they kept saying to
me

Ok its good that you are feeling better
but hunny, if you ever get like that again
go straight to the er and dont look back,
those 6 hours in the waiting room could
help save you or your baby from something
not so good!!
