Does pregnancy hypertension relate to other health problems?

Question

I had preg induced hypertension with my first at 34 wks, and preeclampsia with my second 26.3wks. Both resulted in immediate emergency, first delivery &second c-sect.

The drs suggested a specialist, he looked at extensive blood work to find a possible reason. Something about my body having an underlying problem that shows up while my body is pregnant (so to say "compromised and overworked")

Does anyone know of this. With a high ANA he suggested lupus, but didn't diagnose. Said come back if I have more problems. Yeah, hubby is done, no more risks for him, he was scared I was gone. (I was gone on Meds that I blocked out a bunch, probably good to stay low stress) He was wonderful

The only other health issue I have ever had was with muscle and joint pains. My asthma and alergies went away with a climate & environment change

Any ideas, resources, or experiences. I sympathize with unfortunate ones, I have one health baby girl, and one remembered.

Answer 1

I had a similar issue with pre-ecclampsia two times. The doctor just said to watch for future hypertension. I do have multiple areas of pain some diagnosed, some undiagnosed. I do have some Parkinson's like issues also. I have so many things, I just don't know where it all came from. I'm 33 now, but all my pain and other medical problems started six months after having my 3rd child five years ago.

Answer 2

that's actual difficult on a woman's physique to be pregnant and to boot as hypertensive, the guts issues and the possibility and issues to purely the female's physique is intense. I did it however. It become my decision and it become what i ought to stay with. fortunate for me there have been purely some "fainting" spells have been my rigidity went up one hundred eighty/a hundred and twenty (yikes eh). each little thing became out ok for me and the infant. i wish you get all the documents you ought to make this decision and choose you the final effect.

Answer 3

I also had preclampsia with both my pregnancy's gained over 60 + pounds on each.

Here is a really informative web-site: I have also even called the Mayo Clinic before and have gotten to talk to a Dr. over the phone. Probably a rare occurrence but was very very nice of them to take the time for me and my question.
