Boo. Going to ER.

goldenleaves · July 2009

I called my Dr. They said to go to the ER. I took my pulse at home, resting pulse is 90+. I've been having pressure in my chest, getting winded easily, retaining water. Would you go?

If my Dr said go to the ER, then yes I would go.?

Is there a reason why they wouldn't see you in the office? ?

If dr said yes then yes I would go.

I guess if they said to go, I'd go. Good luck. I'm curious to see how this goes.

YES! If they are concerned enough to tell you to go to the ER then you really should go!

I don't mean this to be snarky, but why even call the doctor for advice if you are going to second guess them? They are trained professionals. I would have grabbed a book and a snack and headed to the ER after getting off the phone with them.

YES especially if your doc already told you to go!

goldenleaves · July 2009

I'm washing my face and going to the ER.

mooeta · July 2009

umm don't be a dumbass, your dr told you to go, GO. Why are you still making posts. Cripes.

Yes I would go. I had preclamsia (sp?) with my first child. My bp was the same way. I called my doc and they had me go to the hos. The hos just monitered me for a few hours and sent me home on bed rest. The next day I went to the doc and my bp bottom number was 110. They had to induce and deliver that day. Preclamsia is very dangerous. I would go. GL to you.

You definitely need to go. (And a bunch of pregnant women can't give you better advice than your doctor!)

Good luck and let us know what happens.

If my doctor said go, I would be out the door so fast you wouldn't even see me go!

I understand your hesitation, I'm a nurse so I always push things to the last minute because I am the only one who truly knows my set of symptoms and can diagnose and analyze myself. DH hates this! But when I finally go in I just tell them what my diagnosis is, they confirm it, and then I'm on my way...

If I were in your shoes I'd have a bunch of other things I'd be looking at, blood pressure, dizziness, pitting edema yes/no, wheezing lung sounds or no, fetal movement, numbness in any limbs, visual disturbances, etc etc... and that would help me decide whether to go to doc or go to ER...

But in your case if doc says go, then go!

C12H22O11 · July 2009

Yes. I'd go.

Kristen0709 · July 2009

If Dr. said go, then go.

Tinkx123x · July 2009

why would you even question not going?? I guess I'm confused about that part?

angie212 · July 2009

Yes.

lovebug630 · July 2009

Uh, yes...go! And good luck to you.

BetsyDavis · July 2009
