Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i am 7 months pregnant and just found out that i have a blood pressuare ranging from 162/92 and if its low it is 154/70 so i was wondering if this is caused by food or stress level i have and if its food is it healthy for me to eat maggi 2 minutes noodles
Regarding your concern I would explain that these values of blood pressure are really concerning for possible preeclampsia which is a serious situation during pregnancy.
It is very important to consult with your attending physician for a careful physical examination, a resting ECG, an urine analysis (albuminuria) and some blood lab tests (complete blood count, fasting glucose, kidney and liver function tests, blood electrolytes, plasma total proteine).
You need to start therapy and treat the possible triggering factors (like urinary infection and diabetes).
An ultrasound to examine the fetus is necessary, as this disorder is harmful for the baby and the mother.
Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes!
Dr. Iliri
