pregnancy/blood pressure update

Posted by Caroline on March 26, 2002 at 20:56:54:

Dr Stoll,

You might recall my recent post regarding elevated blood pressure readings at week 32 of my pregnancy.

Today I had my 34 week appt and was VERY pleased to find out that my BP was at my normal level of 110/70 (down from 130/90). Also, there is no longer any protein in my urine.

I'm cautiously hoping that this is significant due to the fact that I was able to locate (finally) some magnesium glycinate - and take 800 mg spread throughout the day on Monday. Considering that both my pressure AND urine have improved, I'm inclined to believe this is not a random fluke!

Kudos to you and this website for the helpful info!!

Caroline (who might have been on bedrest by now...)

Congratulations, Caroline.

Isn't it amazing what even a little knowledge will do?

Caroline or anyone else reading this message,
Where did you find magnesium glycinate? I can't find it anywhere.
