Is my wife's health at risk...dizziness,legs to weak to walk,and on the verge of passing out?!
My wife has just turned nine months pregnant and our baby's weght is estimated at six pounds eight ouces. She was diagnosted with gestational diabetes this past month. Her blood sugar is only high in the morning when she wakes up until about 10:00 am. She awakes at 5:00 am so there is a window of about five hours where she is sick. She complains of heavy shoulders,heaviness in legs, and very dizzy to the point of near passing out.
She has a pre-existing condition of spondylosthesis L-5 S-1 and was told she will need back surgery in the near future. She is twenty six years old. She has a blood pressure reading of about 124/82 w/ a pulse rate at 85-90 while pregnant. Before pregnancy she was talking Oxycodone 5mg 2 tablets t.i.d.
Do you know what the cause might be? What can she do to improve symptoms? I'm worried my wife's health is at risk and would like them to induce labor now. She asked this to her OB/GYN and they told her with having gestational diabetes the baby's lungs will not be fully developed until 39 weeks. WHAT CAN WE DO???
