Could this be pre eclampsia or am I worrying about nothing?

32 weeks with 6th baby. I’ve got gestational diabetes this time round. Since the end of last week I’ve been experiencing headaches every day- not horrendous headaches, I hasten to add but enough that I’m using paracetamol every day. I also keep experiencing vertigo, floating spots in my vision and dizziness. I had put these down to diabetes, and I’m due to see my diabetes consultant tomorrow to planned to discuss it then. Today I’ve had pain just under my right breast that’s worse when doing things like walking. After googling it, several of my symptoms flagged up as risk for pre-eclampsia. I don’t have the swelling though. I panicked and thought about calling mat assessment but then I’m sure none of this needs dealt with tonight and it’s likely just the diabetes?

Has anyone else had experience of this?

I’ve been told I can take low dose cocodamol if I’m struggling with them.

OK I hope you feel better soon
