19 weeks pregnant and something is wrong.

I don't know what it is that's wrong but something isn't right.
I'm exhausted completely lethargic and drained, I've severe headaches and I am dropping everything constantly my phone spoons cups just everything I lift I drop and I'm so exhausted I am sleeping but t doesn't make me any better I feel physically I'll constantly and I have hyoeremesis still but defo not dehydrated.

Do you think I should call my assessment unit I feel like I'm going to faint and pass out every second of the day and nearly have a few time x

I would go to a&e. Can you get there? How long have you felt this bad?

SirChenjin · 05/07/2015 23:13

Yes - call them now, or if there is no-one there call NHS 24/Direct/whatever you have. They will be able to advise.

Penguinandminipenguin · 05/07/2015 23:16

Yes, I would phone and ask their advice. Hope you feel better soon.

callamia · 05/07/2015 23:29

Yes, call now - but definitely go first thing tomorrow. No one ever minds - your health is important.

I had very similar symptoms from screwed up blood sugar - not gestational diabetes, just low blood sugar. I hope you get some answers and feel better!

Thanks everyone still the same I rang last night and they told me I had to phone my gp this morning for bloods so going to do that soon and they said also it could be iron levels. I have gestational diabetes but my blood sugars are perfect never low never high just right x

Phoned my gp they can't get me an appointment until Wednesday morning and I'm still no better. Had to go out and do a bit of shopping today and nearly collapsed 3 times and then dp said enough was enough it was time to go home. I've a headache and just feel utterly SHIT ! begging for relief but midwives arent listening and won't see me and my gp is useless
