of this? Hi everyone,

I am hoping someone could give me some insight into my problem. I went to the dr. today because I believed that I had a bladder infection and at the same time I wanted to do a pregnancy test. My cycle is between 26 and 32 days and as of today I am on cycle day 31. Once I had both the tests done with urine the doctor said that i had a really bad infection and that the pregnancy test was negative. She then asked when my last cycle had started and said that she would like to do a blood test before prescribing medication. Because if I was pregnant she would give me a different medication. Well the blood test came back inconclusive!!! Her exact words was that it wasn't negative and looked like it was "trying" to become positive. So I am guessing the numbers were somewhere in between.

Have any of you heard of this? I go back on Tuesday for a new test but would love some comforting words of wisdom til then. I can and will accept the positive with the negative, I would just love to understand. As of now she is treating me as pregnant and has matched the medicine accordingly.

Thank you ladies

I know different labs have different levels of hcg that they require before saying you're pg.

Hi ladies,

Unfortunately I didn't ask too many questions, I was a bit at loss for words. Tuesday can't come fast enough and I hope to have some great news. I didn't know they had so many different tests and that there were the number ones and the qualitative.

Thank you for your support and the information. I wish you both the best....

Hi Kat,

Goes to show how much I know, I didn't know there was a difference. I guess I was just so surprised to hear that, that I couldn't think of any good questions. I hope to know so much more on Tuesday.

Thank you so much

I have heard of (read on a reputable site) of a blood test being negative, and a urine test being positive, and YES the person did turn out to be pregnant.

hang in there, it is totally possible that you are PG.

GL!!
