I had one for about a wk straight. NOTHING helped and they finally went away!! Be careful tho, it's a sign of Preeclampsia!! Try and check your BP!! And drink lots of water!! That's what my OB suggested!! Hope you get some relief soon!!!
I went to the hospital for mine. It was so bad I couldnt open my eyes. They tested me for any infections and I had one. They also said they were worried because I am a red head and we bleed like crazy and that a lot of my blood is multiplying which is also causing it. They gave me medication for 2 weeks. I have not had one like that since my infection wentaway. I didn't even realize I had one.
Dang maybe that's a possibility since I've had the worst stuffy nose too. But I've been dizzy and super tired and lethargic just like with my first. I go this week to the dr so I will bring it up to him and see what he says.
Re: Headaches
I copied an item on webmd. It lists headaches and dizziness as symptoms. Also lists history of preeclampsia is an indicator.
Consider calling on-call doctor this weekend or Monday am for an earlier appt if you can. Symptoms can get worse quickly.
