Sorry to keep bothering everyone, I am finding out more information, and am not exactly sure where to go with it.
Went to my GP and she went over results, said it’s not normal but not life threatening. Got a referral to a different doctor who is said to be more thorough and will see him mid December. My Gp thinks it’s orthostatic hypertension and that people just get it, that the cause doesn’t matter. Does anyone else have this issue? Is this said to be common with Lupus? I’m trying to connect as many dots as I can and will first make my case to the Rheumatologist who didn’t even see me and or go somewhere else like others have.
The other thing is that by some miracle, the findings of the birth of my daughter (who is now 11yrs old, almost 12) show high blood pressure/ hypertension, protein in my urine, a supposed 20% blood clot, and placental eruption. He performed an episiotomy and also knicked me with his tongs. I don’t recall him saying anything about pre-eclampsia but from the results it looks very obvious to me. Would this information be helpful in sharing with the Rheumatologist, do you think?
Also, for those who had this happen, is it possible to have it happen again? Or better not to have more children in the future?
