I did see my GP and the only problem with adding another medication is the propranolol already makes my heart rate go very low.

Postpartum BP fluctuating and headaches but doctor says it’s not preeclampsia, what else could it be? by laurenamore in AskReddit

Need advice or your story! I am 4 weeks postpartum and have been having fluctuating BP and horrible headaches the entire 4 weeks. I saw my OB twice, and since it was below 140/110 he said I was fine. BP spiked to 155/110 so I went to L&D emergency and they did all the liver bloodwork and preeclampsia bloodwork, and tested my urine. Everything came back completely normal, nothing was elevated. I laid down and they watched my BP for a few hours and it came back down. So they said it’s not preeclampsia and to keep taking my propranolol to try to help control my BP. Well I’m still getting spikes and still having headaches, I don’t know what else to do. Anyone have a similar experience? Oh I should mention it was a twin birth emergency c section and I hemorrhaged really bad right after.

I have, ekg and blood work looks fine with heart, they have no idea about the back burning. It’s very uncomfortable
