Anyone else's eyes bugging out?

This is nuts! The past week I have been having the nosebleed/severe sinus pressure thing going on and it has left my eyes so wonky feeling. I can still see (I do wear glasses) but it's a struggle. Between the blurriness and weird bright spots I just want to sleep all day. I told my Dr. about my incredibly horrible headahes and how everything feels foggy-ish and he didn't seem concerned whatsoever and prescribed me something for migraines that I have yet to pick up. Said it's just because of my hormones and circulation I guess

Anyone else have crazy vision stuff going on or is it just me??

(I am having twins btw, my body is all over the place lol)

    Did you tell your doctor about your vision issues?

    Yeah I mentioned it but he's not really the talker type and barely speaks english so it's kinda hard to really talk about things

    Did the doctor take your blood pressure? Horrible headaches and bad vision can be a sign of pre-eclampsia and shouldn’t be ignored.

    Agreeing with @harpseal135 though- if you can’t talk with your doctor, please try and find another one.

    You very seriously need to see a competent provider who you can effectively communicate with. This could be symptoms of a migraine but could be a number of very serious conditions. Please. See another doctor.

    What everyone else said. Visual disturbances should not be brushed off. That is not a normal pregnancy symptom. You should find a doctor who you can really talk with. This isn’t a podiatrist. You need someone you really click with. Pregnancy is awesome. But it’s also weird af (I’ve had two wisdom teeth appear since I gave birth) and does weird, sometimes dangerous stuff to you. Do not screw around with this. Call a new OB in the morning. I would send you to the ER but those doctors are often so-so when it comes to stuff related to pregnancy. You could go to Walgreens or whatever to buy a home blood pressure monitor and check yours.

    Hey everyone, just checking in real quick! I did indeed find a new (and really great Dr. I adore her). My blood pressure has been taken many times at this point and has always come back 110/60 which is pretty good. From what I've gathered it's my sinuses that have messed with my eyes a bit. Been feeling better lately except for my head feeling really full and heavy which I will be mentioning to her at my next appointment.
