What Causes Dizziness And Nausea While Suffering From High BP?
I am 27 weeks pregnant and I ve had problems with high blood pressure throughout the pregnancy. Now today I have felt really off feeling dizzy and nauseas at times and now I am having sharp pains in the top of my stomach. The pain is about a 5 on a scale of 1-10 and it gets to about a 7 when I breath in too deep. What could this be? And should go to an urgent care or hospital?

Hi,
Yes, you need urgent care. It is not related to high blood pressure. Upper abdomen pain, nausea, vomiting all point towards liver pathology. You need ultrasound abdomen and liver function tests.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr Varinder Joshi,
