What do you all think about this....
I went to the doctor last week and they said my blood pressure is normal. However, occassionally when standing up from a sitting position I have been getting those "stars in my eyes" but that has been going on for weeks now. Then the past two weeks my fingers started swelling, but now they are really, really bad. Painful and achy. My ankles are not swollen or face, but I am wondering if this is early signs of preeclampsia?? I am at a higher risk for it since it is twins and i know it can come on suddenly. Just wondering what you all think I should do. I go back to the doctor on August 5th.

Re: What do you all think about this....
No, I am going to wait. Like i said i feel okay, just occassionally get the stars and the fingers is new. I think i will have my mom take my blood pressure tonight (she is a nurse) and see what it is. I am really just wondering if girls who wound up getting preeclampsia (or have it) started with the same symptoms.

My friend had it, but her blood pressure was really high. I would just call and mention the symptoms to them
