Hey, it's me again....

LOL

Just a quick question:

I went home for lunch and looked at those stupid tests that I got no lines on, and on them both now are what I think to be evap lines. Both of them have very, very, hardly can read them light pink lines on the control part, and on one of them, there is a even lighter (need a magnifying glass) line in the pos. window.

This is hours after I took the tests...

I can't spend another penney on tests again this month! - I have spent almost $120 on them this month alone!

(especially since I am seeing the Dr. on Tuesday)

HOLY COW!!!! $120???? WOW!......

Well... it could be an evaporation line. Evaporation lines are usually white or grey-ish

(some even have a blue-ish tint in the grey) color.. others look like a "blank" where

there should be a + line. On generic tests, I have even seen a pink line several hours

after taking them.

The best thing to do is to be sure to look at the test at the 2 or 3 minute mark.. and

most tests say to not check them after 10 or 20 minutes (depending on the brand). They

should be thrown away and NOT looked at again.. but.. we ALL know how hard it is NOT to

peek.. lol!

Hope this helps.
