Preeclampsia

Anyone have preeclampsia or has had it in previous pregnancies? Today I woke up feeling like I got hit by a train. Headache, swollen everywhere, seeing stars even. Borrowed my MIL’s blood pressure monitor, it was 138/82 then tried again 20 min later- 132/80.

Is this something to be worried about? Only asking here first cause my clinic is closed until Tuesday & my hospital is an hour & a half away.. She’s letting me take it home with me to monitor it, I’m usually 120/70 give or take. I’ve read that 140/90 is preeclampsia. Never had an issue with blood pressure my last pregnancy.
