Hiya Peter

I went to Bham Womens last week and had all my blood tests done for immune system, liver, kidneys, thyroid, chromosomes etc. Will have results in about 8 weeks time.

While I was there I also had to do a urine sample which was fine but my blood pressure was up slightly at 92. I had to go and have it checked again yesterday at my GP's and it was 124/92. I have called the hospital today to give them the results and I have to go over there next Friday and have a monitor attached to my arm for 24 hours and also each time I go to the loo I have to take a sample. The hospital said this is to check my kidneys.

Do you think me having high blood pressure would have caused my 3 misscarriages.

Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards
Nancy

Sounds good!

No, it is not significantly high and would not effect pregnancy in the early stages. It could be a problem in late pregnancy which is why they are checking it out.

Good luck!
