[quote=Anonymous]How do you get "preeclampsia is overdiagnosed"? There are clear diagnostic criteria: BP over 140/90 and 24hr protein over 300. This is not subjective. Every obstetrician I have ever met (and as a 2x PE survivor, I've met a lot) has used these criteria. Meanwhile, the PE forums have multiple stories from midwives who FAILED to diagnose. Please tell me, what is "true" preeclampsia, according to midwives? Do they only believe it's real when you're on the verge of stroke or seizure? 140/90 with a 2+ dip and followup of 300+ on 24hr collection IS preeclampsia. Period. Preeclampsia can progress rapidly to HELLP or eclampsia and put baby in distress. [/quote]
