*hugs* That's actually really scary! *clings*

thanks. They're still coming on, not as strong, but I'm just hoping this isn't a symptom of something more serious!

I'm hoping it's just a normal, hormone-related migraine... I used to get similar ones, minus the aura (visual symptoms), when I was on Alesse (estrogen-progestin pills).

I've had similar headaches every once in a while, like hardly ever, but six days is a lot. I wondered if they were migraines but I don't think they're as painful as that. It's still a possibility, though. I'm keeping track of when they happen to tell my doc.

I'm so sorry. I never had this experience, but pregnancy does a LOT of weird things and different women get different symptoms. Did your OB seem at all concerned beyond the fact that you aren't feeling well? The symptoms do sound scary as well as annoying. Take care.

Thanks. It's still hanging in there. My OB wasn't too concerned since my blood pressure was fine, then I saw my GP on Friday and he wasn't too concerned, either. I will see my eye doctor on Wednesday and hopefully figure something out because this is making me crazy!!
I've had some odd symptoms, most lasting about a week, but this I am worried could be the onset of glaucoma, now that I'm 30. I'm hoping for good news.
