protein level test after pregnancy



ORIGINAL POST
Posted by Teress 16 yrs ago
When I was pregnant at 36 weeks, I had a high blood pressure and got much protein in my urine from the test. Almost 10 months now from giving birth, my blood pressure is back to normal and the level of protein has droped down a lot. But the level of protein is still a bit higher than the normal. Well I feel very good everyday and do not sense anything not right. Doctor has not explained too much to me. Should I worry about it? Does anyone know why?

Sounds like you had pre-eclampsia which I'm guessing would have been confirmed to you via blood lab work up and detection of protein in your urine. If your levels are still above normal 10 months on you need to ask your doctor to specifically answer your questions, that is their job and you shouldn't be afraid to ask for explanations if there is anything you don't understand. Pregnancy affects the body in a huge way, please seek the medical advice from your GP so you can feel at ease and have the necessary information. Take care.
