I feel like such a hypochondriac now... so I apologise but I feel so stupid phoning and asking a doctor about something thats blatently in my head.

So I posted the other day... my blood pressure up, normally bog standard around 120/75, the other day every time they took it is was about 140/88.
Swelling (always goes back down though) and occasionally (very occasionally) get bright white floaty things in my eyes.
Last night had really bad headaches and eyes hurt in light. Headache back again now.
My question is, they said to let them know if any of a number of things happened, one was pain in upper right side. Well, I do have pain n upper right side, quite bad for hours now... but its around my ribs on the back, not front. Pretty much parallel at the front, I have a funny feeling, not pain, but feels kind of stingy if that makes sense?
I'm assuming this is just pain from being pregnancy... just thought I better check this wasn't what they meant.
Sorry for being long winded! Please let me know I'm being a hypochondriac!

Hi,
So I called, and they said to see if went away overnight... well it did, but back in the last few hours! I am guessing since it went away initially its nothing much, coz if pre eclampsia related it wouldn't go away would it?
Also, where I get the funny burningish feeling under my right ribs (at front) I can now feel some lumps, bit bigger than a pea I think... Would this just be random suddenly appearing cysts causing the pain? How strange!
xx
