I found this by searching via Google, looking for an answer to my almost identical symptoms, Abby!
My period is 2 weeks late, my last one (at the right time) was very light and only lasted a couple of days. I have high BP too, I have to take tablets for it (I'm 45yrs old) and although its been stabilised for a while now, I know its gone high again this week because I recognise the usual symptoms of high BP, that I get.
I too, am suffering from cramps, as if my ovaries are being squeezed and I keep going the loo expecting to find I have my period.
On top of this, I feel nauseous at frequent times of day, not actually sick but you know that feeling... just 'ugh'.
Do you think I should take a pg test? Think its possible I could indeed be pregnant although I'm old-ish??
Good luck..
: I am writing because I was supposed to get my period on the 3rd or 4th of January. My period has been very regular for the past several years. I have not been hungry at all, and my blood pressure is very high, was 190/140 pulse 118 yesterday. I always have high blood pressure, since grade-school, cause unknown, but not this bad. I have almost passed out 3 times in the last two days from standing for more than a few minutes at a time. I am very dizzy also. There is no explanation as to why my period would be this late or why my blood pressure is so bad, I have not been ill at all and am not under alot of stress. Life is actually pretty good right now. I took a hpt yesterday and it was negative, and repeated this morning with first a first morning sample, still negative. Any Ideas????? I also have an odd pain streching across my stomach just above my belly button its not a sharp pain just achy, and have had cramping on and off, but no spotting and no period. PLease let me know if you have any ideas. Thank You.
