Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern I would explain that these values of blood pressure are really concerning for possible preeclampsia which is a serious situation during pregnancy.

It is very important to consult with your attending physician for a careful physical examination, a resting ECG, an urine analysis (albuminuria) and some blood lab tests (complete blood count, fasting glucose, kidney and liver function tests, blood electrolytes, plasma total proteine).

You need to start therapy and treat the possible triggering factors (like urinary infection and diabetes).

An ultrasound to examine the fetus is necessary, as this disorder is harmful for the baby and the mother.

Hope to have been helpful!

Best wishes!

Dr. Iliri
