What Causes Severe Headache And Stuffy Nose?

I m 35 weeks pregnant, and I think I m sick. I have had a really bad headache, and neck ache for the past few days. It seems to be getting worse. My sleep, which has been bad seems to be worse. I have also been having a problem with my nose getting seriously stuffed up whenever I lay down, and I have a hard time breathing. My mom says I should call my doctor, so i guess my question is....Should I?

Hi,

Yes, you should go to the hospital immediately, difficulty breathing during pregnancy cannot be taking lightly. Headache, neck ache and inability to sleep could be due to pregnancy induced hypertension,infection,or meningitis.
At 35 weeks it could affect both you and your baby, please go to a doctor to get complete evaluation of yourself and the baby immediately.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
