Pregnant with high blood pressure, sick what can I take?

I'm almost 15 weeks pregnant and am on medication for my high blood pressure. This is the second cold i've battled this month, this one feels so much worse: Sore throat, coughing, swollen glands, ears hurting, and headache. Tea not helping. Please tell me there is something I can take atleast to take the edge off.

Only your doctor can advise you properly on this issue. My doctor allowed me to take Tylenol and Sudafed when I was pregnant, but only your doctor knows your health history. Don't take anything without your doctor's recommendation.

go to the pharmacy and ask the pharmacist for sudifed. you can only take the kind that is kept behind the counter.

I had several Sinus infections and the last one I had my doctor told me to go and get sudifed, but I think you have to be in your second tri to take it.

Just call the docs office and they can give you a list of ok stuff to take. That would be the best thing for you if you have High blood pressure.

I would just wait it out, I know it sucks but think of how wonderful it will be when the baby is here. Enjoy ever good and bad moment you have, because these are things you can never get back, only in memories

Hot baths/shower, facial sauna, sniffing menthol products, plenty rest, drinking water, consuming alot of vitamin C and drinking hot lemonade with added pepper and honey, swallowing honey will help with the throatache too.

If none of that works you can take Tylenol or Sudafed headache and congestion, not sudafed pe though as that's bad in pregnancy.

Good luck! x
