  I normally don't look like a chipmunk, lol. They don't open till 8 (it's only 4 here) but I did take a picture.

  Doctor: "Call if your face swells"
  
  You: "My face is swollen"
  
  
  This seems like a no-brainer to me.

  Definitely call... Or just go to L&D. I'm shocked your doc wasn't concerned with what you already have going on. I have less symptoms and they've been monitoring me closely for pre-e.

  Call your doctor. I'm sure they have an after hours number, just for situations like this. Not sure why you are even questioning it.

  After everything that's happened with pre e on this board is she looking for attention or just not paying attention?
  
  This crap is serious people!! This is why women die during child birth!! Please call and follow through.

  My doctor sent me to L&D for blood work and monitoring. All was good with my blood work, and my blood pressure goes up and down. They didn't really tell me much but I have a follow up with my doctor tomorrow so hopefully more news, or I'll be demanding answers.
  
  The only reason I was unsure was because I woke up and my face was swollen, but it went down. The nurse at the clinic didn't think she would send me to L&D because it went down, but my doctor didn't want to take any chances.
