headache going on day 4
and I am beginning to worry, maybe high BP? I don't "feel" like I might have high BP but I cannot shake this headache. I even took the day off yesterday to rest  I am about 19 weeks so I think its too early for BP related issues but I guess you never know?

headache going on day 4
About two weeks ago, I had a headache (migraine style) for a week. Mine turned out to be a sinus infection that came out on day 5. If you think it may be your bp, I would call your dr. Have you tried a cup of coffee?

you know what, as I am sitting here, my teeth (all of them on one side) are beginning to ache. I bet it IS sinus related. I am also sipping an iced coffee hoping it will help.
maybe ill grab some plain sudafed on my lunch break.
I do have a Zpack at home - can we take zpack?

It definitely be high blood pressure, if its not related to sinuese! I had high blood pressure from about 16 weeks on and was put on meds at about 20 weeks. There are no symptoms and you don't feel anything. I felt great and thought I was cruising along. MY OB ended up having me buy a blood pressure cuff to take my BP at home and I was surprised at how it was in all different situations.
Hope you feel better soon!

Don't assume you're too early for high bp or preeclampsia, it happened to my mom around 20 weeks. I would call your OB and see what they think. Are you having any swelling?

Also, are you drinking enough water? I had a horrible headache a few weeks ago. Nothing worked except drinking LOTS of water (with lemon)
