Hbp & Pregnancy Posted: 05-03-07 10:29am


I just found out that I am pregnant. I also just found out that I have High Blood Pressure. I consider myself to be healthy. I am not overweight, do not smoke, do not drink. I do have a stressful customer service job in a fast paced office. But, to discover I have HBP came as a shock to me. My doctor was quick to recommend a low dose of a medicine that I can't even pronounce! I quickly went online to look for some support. I have never been one to even take aspirin, so the thought of taking a pill just keeps me in a state of shock! Does anyone know of any non-drug ways to control blood pressure? What about these medical devices I have seen online??? HELP! Veronicca

Hi veronicca, Welcome to ehealth! How far along are you? You should post in the pregnancy forum. There are alot of great girls over there that would probably be a lot of help. Hope to see you there! Christy
