Preeclampsia Advice

Just looking for some experience/ advice really.

I am 27+5 and have been in hospital since Sunday with confirmed Pre eclampsia. Bloods and urine are now normal but blood pressure is struggling to stabilise. Sunday it was 180/118 And Wednesday it got to 160/115. Both times a massive increase in the drugs helped bring it down but takes ages.

My main concern is that when I'm due medication, my blood pressure gets up to around 140/100 and then goes down to 140/95 after. I think my body is fighting the medication and worried that in a few days it was be able to control it.

I've had steroid injections and next week I'll be having a test to see how the blood flow is but at the moment the baby doesn't seem to be affected and all CTGs and movement is fine, she is a little on the small side though.

Just wondered if anyone had been through a similar situation and managed to hold on? I want to get the 32 weeks!
