When I was in labor, on Pitocin
and another induction medication, with NOTHING for
pain, it elevated to approx. 110/75, which was by FAR the highest it has ever been.
Today, the automatic BP machine registered my blood pressure as 153/118. I am not under stress (I have a high stress job, but love it).
Anyway, I was concerned about that, since it's literally almost DOUBLED in 3 years.
The first round of bloodwork came back, and my red blood cells were low.
