Second Trimester Pregnancy, Have Intense Headache, Head Pain On Coughing, Worsened Vision, Low Appetite, Back Pain, Bile Vomiting. Normal?
I am 26 weeks pregnant and have a horrible headache. When I cough it hurts my head then it s sore after. Down the back of my head it hurts, behind my ear, and my neck hurts as well. My vision has gotten worse recently and Ive had to strain my eyes to see. I work on a computer all day and it seems to get worse at night. On top of that I have bad back pain , loss of appetite , and am vomiting bile every day. I really need some answers because my doctor is just telling me it s the pregnancy and I feel like the headaches are more than that.

Hello
Welcome to HCM forum
Severe headaches with vomitings and blurring of visison can be due to toxaemia of pregnancy in which the blood pressure is high and there can be oedema along with albuminuria.Get your retina check up done for any papilloedema or any other changes.Other cause can be anemia and lack of sleep and stress, so eat iron rich diet and take supplements.
Best wishes
