    Weird, Excrusiating Pains (bit long)

    I'm going to call my OB about this this morning, but i just though someone on here might know what this is.
    I've been suffering high blood pressure and my Ob has me medicated, and it seems to be working. But last night, someone REALLY upset me, and I came home and had a cry, but then I started getting these really strong pains up between my shoulderblades, then in my stomach, diaphram, ribs, up my chest, between my breasts, then it started spredding down the sides of my belly. At which point I got quite frightened, and went and lay down. The pains went away after about half an hour.
    But in the middle of the night, had to get up to use the loo (as you do) but as soon as I was up right, the pains started again. It was horrible. DH gave me a massage, which helped enough for me to sleep, but the next time I got up the same thing happened. I've never felt anything like this. It doesn't feel muscular, or sharp, or stabbing, or dull for that matter, but sort of all of the above.
    I was still getting some pain this morning, but felt ok after nice hot shower, brekky and medication.
    Are these BH? Blood Pressure? I'm really confused, and DH is REALLY stressed.
    Help!

    Hi LisyLee
    Pain in the area of the diaphram can be a sign of PE. As you have stated that you are suffering from high blood pressure I would suggest that you go and get checked out

    Well, Turns out I had developed HELLP Syndrome! Out new baby boy "Hunter" was born via emeregncy C-Section on the 3rd Apr. Because my liver and kidneys had shut down.
    So thank you all for the advice, and everyone else, please take note!
    Thanks, Lisa
