Question: ok I have high blood pressure and hypertension and according to my doc she says I'm on the verge of preeclampsia. I've cut salt and sodium down by 90% and my blood pressure is higher than it was b4 I cut that out. I was in an accident on the 20th and the ultrasound was good but since my blood pressure has been high. How or what should I do to calm my blood pressure? Fyi depression seeps in if I lay down to much, cuz i feel worthless not able to do anything.
