    Unhappy Bad headaches

    Hi buddies,

    Since ive been pregnant i've started to get these headaches, pretty bad, about twice a week.But in the last 6 days i wake up every morning with this splitting headache.
    :ms:Im slightly worried bcos i've been having bad chest pains on and off thru out the day that are getting worse, i get dizzy and out of breath when it happens and my ob sent me to a cardiologist but thats not untill friday.

    I hope there not related!

    Any suggestions?

    Have you had your BP checked recently? Pains in the lower chest combined with headaches, flashing lights or blurryness in your vision can all be symptoms of dangerously high blood pressure which can be a sign of pre-eclampsia. I'd go and get checked out as soon as you can hun, it might be nothing but you can't be too careful.
