from Built from Greek pieces: 'pre-' (before) plus 'eclampsia,' which comes from the Greek 'eklampsis,' meaning a sudden flashing or shining forth — originally used for the sudden onset of seizures. Eclampsia itself named the violent convulsions that can follow this condition; preeclampsia is literally the state 'before the lightning strikes' — the warning phase doctors watch for so the seizures never arrive.
