Hello, no advice really, I just wanted to say I had pregnancy hypertension in my last two pregnancies and tho my bp went back to normal it seems to have shot back up again, there doesn't seem to be much info about high bp after pregnancy, I'm awaiting on tests (explained in my post) did your bp stay high after birth or did you have some time back to normal? I hated how the medication made me feel while pregnant, is it the same when your not pregnant? (As the dose made get be higher/ lower) sorry fo all the questions. Hope you get some good advice on here x
