Interesting

It's interesting, I have been told I get the aura of migraine but no headache and offered migraine drugs but I refused as I can't believe it is migraine related. Maybe I need to re look at these drugs. My daughter had preeclampsia and we nearly lost her and the baby, so it's interesting this could be a marker for later in life of a stroke.

It is interesting, thank you for that... Oddly I remember my BP went down through my boots when I was pregnant - I kept fainting in Asda, for some weird reason. Maybe it was their low, low prices :D
