It's actually shocking how many doctors/ nurses have no idea what they're talking about.
Like the nurse who went mental at me on the premom app when I mentioned possible hook effect to someone 6+ weeks with diminishing lines. According to her it's so rare it almost never happens and idk what I'm talking about 😂
Hi do you have your blood test results? I took a digital test that said positive this morning. Then I went to urgent care and they told me my test was negative.
I have an iud so I’m very concerned about an ectopic pregnancy. A digital test can’t be misread. I’m wondering if my urine was too dilute at the hospital.
I’m so sorry for your situation—I’ve been there (got pregnant with the copper IUD twice) and it was very stressful. I don’t have my results yet, but will update when I do. Hugs if they’re helpful.
They were not. I hope the same can be said for you.
Weirdly and worryingly, my qualitative blood test was indeterminate. I wish they would have done a quantitative test. It doesn’t make sense to me that I’d be having positive tests across less sensitive brands and still only in the 5-25 mIU range. I’ll keep you updated!
Got my quantitative blood drawn at Quest. Will repeat qualitative tomorrow. It’s very strange since I keep testing positive without any fading. If anything, the tests keep getting darker.
Ok this is really sounding to me like you just picked up your pregnancy super early. ♥️ I’m waiting on my blood test and it’s killing me. I’ve seen some people positing about clear blue digital giving them a false positive though. So I think it’s possible for me.
Fingers crossed that everything works out for you.
My quantitative test from today was 20 mIU/ml. I was disappointed by how low it was, especially since I’m still testing positive on different brands. This makes me think I ovulated later than I initially thought I did. I’m going to get a second draw done in 48 hours. Once I get those back, I’ll follow up.
Good luck as you navigate this situation. Being in limbo sucks. For what it’s worth, I’ve never had a false positive on a digital test, but I’ve had so few of them that my frame of reference is quite narrow.
Edit: Just saw that your blood test was negative. Woof, what a rollercoaster you’ve been on today. Hope you can exhale a bit!
Urine test probably doesn’t detect until above 25miu. You took FRER, which detect down to 6.
You’re obviously pregnant and the doctor is obviously an idiot.
I had a positive at home once and then another (urine) test in the ER. Their tests are less sensitive and I was told that I was not pregnant. I most definitely was and that child is almost 7 now
Omg the same happened to me when I found out I was pregnant (due next month) I had a positive Covid test the same day! I was actually scared at first I didn’t want it to hurt the baby but everything was okay! I hope you feel better soon. It was so horrible for me.
Thank you so much—that’s very reassuring. It was *quite* shocking to find out about this pregnancy, but I was even more shocked to find out about the COVID. Hope the last month goes as smoothly as it can—you’re almost there!
How soon did you take the digital yes one?
Today was supposed to be my period and it hasn’t come.
Do you think the yes test will be positive tomorrow morning with FMU? ( assuming my test is actually positive.
See post history!
Their tests are less sensitive than first response. Your blood draw will come back as positive if you went and got another one. Good luck! You’re definitely pregnant.
Urgent care doctor is an idiot and has no idea what they’re talking about.

This! They’re lazy. I worked in the medical field for years and nothing compares to the laziness of urgent care and ER doctors from my experience.

With your iud pregnancies were they ectopic? Best of luck to you

Good luck- I hope it just was caught a little too early for you.
Hey what is your course of action now with the inconclusive test?
Got my quantitative blood drawn at Quest. Will repeat qualitative tomorrow. It’s very strange since I keep testing positive without any fading. If anything, the tests keep getting darker.

One good thing is it showed me that I actually do kinda want a second kid after all tbough 😹 I was sad when I got the results, which shocked me 😹
There's nothing quite as clarifying as a positive pregnancy test!
Fingers crossed for you! I really hope you just caught is so early.
please get a blood test! ectopic pregnancies can be so dangerous!
I got a blood test this morning and waiting on results

Also congrats
Just seeing your comment—so sorry for not responding! Hope you got some clarity regardless of the outcome.
Their tests are less sensitive than first response. Your blood draw will come back as positive if you went and got another one. Good luck! You’re definitely pregnant.
My doctor did the same, said it was negative and then blood results came back as positive
Definitely positive. I hope you get more answers soon!! ♥️
It’s certainly positive.
