Ok, I'll just start by saying that my cycles are very irregular and I have been told that most of the time I do not ovulate.

Starting at the beginning of August I had spotting for 4 days, went 2 days without anything then i had spotting for 1 day and what seemed to be a period for 4 days followed by another 6 days of spotting. Then 7 days later i had what seemed to be another period for 3 days and 1 day of spotting. Every 35 days if I dont' have a period I have to take prometrium twice a day for 5 days. I took my prometrium on Oct 6-10 and still no sign of my period.

The past couple of weeks I have had an uncontrollable appetite (which isn't normal for me). I can eat a meal that would normally fill me for hour and 30 minutes later I'll be starving. Sometimes I am starving and sick to my stomach at the same time. The past 2 nights i have woke up with extremely bad heartburn, choking on it to be exact. I've been a little more tired than normal. And just recently i've noticed that when I go to the bathroom my urine has a strong smell.

I'm sure i'm just being paranoid as usual and making up a pregnancy in my mind. I won't allow myself to test until friday at the earliest, that way i've given the prometrium a week to kick start my period. Any response would be greatly appreciated.

I think you are right to be concerned if you are pregnant of not with your cycle so haywire. If you have already decided not to test until Friday I would try not to worry but keep a diary of your bleeding and spotting so you can show a Dr if you come back positive for a pregnancy. It will help to date the baby's due date.

Good luck with everything
