Stages may be used to describe lymphedema. 1  Stage I: The limb (arm or leg) is swollen and feels heavy. Pressing on the swollen area leaves a pit (dent). 2  Stage II: The limb is swollen and feels spongy. A condition called tissue fibrosis may develop and cause the limb to feel hard. 3  Stage III: This is the most advanced stage.
Molar pregnancy is a condition in which the placenta does not develop properly. The symptoms of molar pregnancy, which may include vaginal bleeding, severe morning sickness, stomach cramps, and high blood pressure, typically begin around the 10th week of pregnancy.
If you have a molar pregnancy, you will feel pregnant, because pregnancy hormones are present even if fetal tissue is not. However, there are another set of symptoms that are rarely part of a healthy pregnancy. If you are having these symptoms, check in with your doctor-common tests done during early pregnancy (HCG levels, pelvic ultrasound) will let your doctor know if there is the possibility of a molar pregnancy.
