Short Update

Well, we've had an eventful week. As most everyone who has seen me lately knows, I've been dealing with a lot of swelling. Up until my last Dr. appt. my doctor wasn't too concerned about it because my blood pressure was still in normal range, but when I went in last Thursday my blood pressure was up from it's usual 108/70 to 126/86. So, they tested me for Preclemsia and I got my results yesterday. They did find some protein in my urine but not to the extent that they were going to put me on bedrest because of it. So I guess right now I'm considered border-line Preclemsia and they will just check my BP every week and if I start to get bad headaches or stomach pain I am to call them immediately. They did have me go in for just a BP check yesterday and it was still a little higher then normal, but lower then the previous one. The doctors advice has been to just take things very easy for these last 4 weeks and stay off my feet as much as possible. Yeah right, like that's possible! Not with everything we still need to get done! Oh well...we'll manage. We always do!
