Unusually Late

When I was younger you could set a calendar by my period, now it's not exact but it's usually only off by a day sooner or later. Today makes 10 days late. My Bf and I use the w/d method, so I know pregnancy is a possibility. Midmonth I was really sick with a kidney infection, and was on antibiotics for 2 weeks ending a week ago. I've also stopped eating meat this month, so my diet has changed, and I lost 10 lbs when I was sick. So that could possibly account for the late period, but I usually get really sick once every other month, I'm always trying a new crash diet, and I've been in many high stress situations (including basic training), and nothing has ever changed my cycle. I've been ravenously hungry, frequently urinating (but I've also been drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day), my breasts were really sore for a day and I got that crampy irritable feeling that I usually get the day before my period but 3 days later and still nothing. I've also noticed that I'm less emotional than usually, I always cry during chick flicks but lately nothing. I'm too afraid to take a test because I'm afraid it will be negative, but I don't want to get my hopes up for nothing either. And I don't want to talk to my Bf about it until I know one way or another. I guess I just need advice, support, or someone to knock some reality into me.
Thanks for any responses

Well, okay, I'll knock some reality into you! LOL! Just kidding. But seriously, what's the worst that could happen - you could know for sure one way or the other. Go get a test, take it and talk to your BF about the results, either way. If you want to be pregnant and you are, then that's great! If you're not and are thinking maybe you want to start ttc, talk to him about it and see how he feels.
KUP! :)
