Week long headache but not Pre-e?

in 3rd Trimester

Hey ladies. i wanted to ask if anyone else has delt with this or has any sort of ideas what might be. My doctors have run MANY a test for Pre-e. i've even done the 24 hour urine collection along with a 24 hour blood pressure check. ect... They still have really no answers for me and it's very frusturating because this swelling and my now 7 day long headache is out of control. It flairs up randomly (maybe not so randomly and i just havent noticed a pattern?) But do any of you ladies have any experience with this? it's so frusturating to not have any answers and be so uncomfortable all the time + a headache + chasing after my two year old.

Thank you in advanced for any advice or expierience sharing.

    I had a week long headache earlier in pregnancy. I tried everything normal and homeopathic. I even did some reading that suggested it could be dehydration, so I essentially gorged myself with water. I got about 2 hours of relief. That was the only time in the 6 days that I did have ANY relief. I finally called a local acupuncturist and made an appointment, the next day my headache was gone.

    I had the week long headache (might have been longer, don't remember) with DS and high BP. I did pass my 24 hour urine collection but they eventually induced me calling it Pre-e. Nothing made the headache better, they even gave me a prescription for the headache and it didn't help. I wish I could offer advice but I no longer had a headache after I delivered so thats something to look forward too. Good luck!! I hope they can figure something out for you soon!!

    Have they checked you for a sinus infection or TMJ? I've had week long headaches because of both of those.
    Yes, i was checked for both when i was in the hospital last.
