So yesterday I went to doc and he gave me a quantitative blood test which came back at 1 and he said that meant my 20 positive FRER's were all wrong! Especially because it took me 32 days from the last time I had sex to get a positive in the first place(which he said was impossible). Which would put me a 8 weeks from LMP right now. Well here I am the next day I had a positive last night (which I had 2 other ppl look at and confirm) and one more this morning. So whats up is he wrong, do labs make mistakes, or are the now 22 FRER's wrong? Has anyone had this happen, what was the outcome? He also gave me an ultra sound that a nurse who has no training preformed (the ultra sound tech wasn't there that day and they really only have the machine which is ancient for women who are further along) anyways is was inconclusive because my bladder was empty. Then he later referred to it as neg. (which it technically wasn't) just to further his agenda that I wasn't pregnant!

Oh and I haven't miscarried no pain or bleeding, and I have almost every symptom of pregnancy. My veins are huge, my breasts are sore to the touch, I get headaches (very abnormal for me), fatigue, my bbt has stayed elevated, my abdomen has gotten noticeably larger (maybe just bloating), no period, positive test ( although they go back and forth between dark and faint), nipples darker, and I even have a line from my belly button to my pubic bone. If my symptoms were caused by something else I could understand but all of them together shortly after unprotected sex around the time I should have ovulated... thats just too much of a coincidence.

I have not gone back to the doctor yet my last appt. was well over 2,000 dollars and I'm tapped out I don't know what to do. I can't get pregnancy insurance without a doctors conformation and I obviously can't get that. I'd go to a free health clinic but I can't do that until I get to a point where I can get a pos on a less sensitive urine test. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place here and I don't know what to do! :(

I'm just a lurker here, but maybe this will help. When I was pg last time (I'm TTC #2 right now), I went to a Planned Parenthood office to get a test done for insurance purposes. I paid $25, and they gave me a urine test. That was it. You shouldn't need an appointment, and there's no cost for the visit, just the test.

did they charge you for the ultrasound? if they did, i'd refuse to pay since the person doing it wasn't a tech....

they should have given you the instructions (drink a bunch of water, blah blah blah) and scheduled a time for you to come back when a tech would be able to do it.

(no advice on the pg stuff, tho, sorry. but i've been ripped off a lot, so i like to try to help other people not get ripped off. *hehe*)

Hi... I'm new here, but I just wanted to offer a different perspective. I know that doctors & nurses are highly trained, but they CAN be wrong. Proof?? I was 8 weeks with my first before I got a BFP. Got my period the first month & everything. (no it was not IB, it was a full blown normal period). With my 2nd, I had
