Could I be allergic to sugar? For the past three days, I’ve been getting hives. After I started to pay attention to what I ate, I saw that the more sugar I ate, the worse I’d get. I also became itchy after eatting Honey nut cheerios. I thought they were whole grain.

Could I be allergic to sugar? Is there like a subsitiute that I can use?

I ate apples and carrots and felt just fine, if not better. Ice cream was torcure.

I love sugar. In fact, for years, I’ve been a sugarholic. I ate raw sugar and added sugar to veggies and fruits.

I am overweight, have high blood pressure, pre diabetic, and can’t go to a doctor because I have no money. I’m also 19 years old.

As i said before my blood count has been running high for quite sometime,and is now 18,000. with a absolute lymphocytes as 5.0 and MCHC is 31.7 but don’t know what they mean, but ive been having bad headache for a long while, ear trouble and sinuses pressure, But now the doctors are getting worried about my blood count being high , but i feel bad like ive got a infection, so tell me should I be worried. And my brother had lymphoma leukemia when he was 11 years old. Please help me out if you can. Thank you Tammy

my blood pressure at home it was 149/94 and i was wondering if i should go to the doctor

I know this is really only something I and my OB can decide but I would like some opinions. I really wanted to go all natural but I don’t know if it is even worth trying.

Reasons:
This is my second child. My first was born at 21 weeks gestation and died shortly after birth due to placental abruption.
They will not have me go past about 36 weeks so as to not put any additional pressure on my placenta.This means induction which %40 of all inductions end in c-sectons anyway.
This baby also has a umbilical cord that is attached to the side of the placenta instead of the middle so he will likely be growth restricted and lower in birth weight.

I have read that usually they let you try to labor normally but if the baby shows sings of distress than they do a c-section. The baby can have trouble getting enough oxygen and in rare cases the umbilical cord can pull away from the placenta during labor leaving him without any oxygen until they can rush the c-section. But now I am thinking I don’t even want to risk having problems when laboring. I am thinking I am just going to ask for a planned c-section. We do want more kids but after what we have been through we care more about getting through this pregnancy than worrying about the future and how c-sections effect future pregnancies. What is your opinion?

Additional Details
My pregnancy is considered high risk and I am currently seeing a Maternal Fetal Medicine specialist. She is generally not one to push the c-section and she said I do not HAVE to go early if I insists on going longer we can do that but I have already held one child as he took his last breath…. I can’t do that again. I am going to do what they recommend and let them take this baby early. March of Dimes had done a study that shows before 36 weeks there are more risks and problem but as of right now there are no known long term risks of problems for those infants born after 36 weeks. My doctor really hasn’t even suggested a c-section as of yet but I just am trying to decide if I just want to ask for one.

What is the normal blood pressure for a 16-17 year old girl? Also what does it mean if either of the numbers are higher or lower than they should be? How far away from ‘normal’ is dangerous?
In case it helps, i took my blood pressure at CVS sooooo i’m not sure that it is accurate but it said 111/85.

Oh and i’m about 108 lbs. i don’t know if that makes a difference.
