Maya is pregnant and the doctor should tell her about the condition of preeclampsia that this condition can affect other organs in the mother's body. It can cause kidney damage, liver failure, neurological symptoms, such as severe headaches, seizures, and fluid on the lungs and the reason behind this is may be a substance released from placenta. And due to this the fetus may not get the nourishment and oxygen it needs for growth.
