<t>I got this weeks blood work and protein results and apparently they are normal. Doc told me he doesn't consider me to be very preeclamptic and he's not concerned.

<t>I'm happy about 143/83, but I am also getting down into the 130's which is below my baseline. What are the repercussions of going below the baseline. I know that Doc mentioned that since my placenta was used to the baseline numbers it was best to stay in the 140's. So, what are the repercussions ...

<t>Thanks for responding. I totally agree. I think I would have depression and anxiety that would affect my blood pressure more. Plus, since I have severe pelvic, lower back, sciatica and hip pain, resting on my side is very difficult. Usually checking my blood pressure after lying on my side result...

Do you all think I should be on bed rest?

My bps' have been around 140/90 to 155/90... the first being the baseline. He said it would be a good idea to go on bedrest, but I honestly don't think I ...

<t>I'm concerned. This is the exact email my doctor sent me with my lab results.. he doesn't seem concerned yet according to this site, 300+ protein with elevated bp is PE... please help me understand why he is NOT concerned.<br/> <br/> "I received your lab results today and your blood tests are nor...
