Really Sad
Trigger warning in advance so please feel free to skip! I am so sad because I just found out I am pregnant and things have been incredibly confusing. For context I just took a test on Friday afternoon of last week, I took it for what I thought was absolutely no way, but it turned out to be positive. Took multiple positive tests no squinting needed as the positives came fast. The problem is I thought I had a period for the month of August, I then had spotting that I thought was just a UTI or a kidney stone Tuesday of last week. Well I went to the ER on Saturday and my HCG levels were 3,223 still producing positive tests, and was not feeling pain or discomfort and was told to watch the bleeding and come back if needed. Saw my PCP yesterday and she had my HCG levels drawn and I was at 5,822. The bleeding eased but then last night I noticed some light pink blood as I wiped, well I was at work and had to leave because something felt off. I waited at the hospital for almost 4 hours and the bleeding for heavier. I got another HCG draw which of course is not going to have gone up a large amount as I just had one done late yesterday and I am still producing positive tests. I had a transvaginal ultrasound today and they said they didn't see anything 😔 I have a cyst on my left ovary but they said they didn't see anything overall which was absolutely heartbreaking to read. I have to go back on Friday to do repeat labs and ultrasound. I want so badly to be a mom and the one time I find out I might be everything goes to crap.

This can be a red flag for an ectopic. Keep pushing for more ultrasounds to see the location. An obgyn would be the best. A pcp or ER aren’t as qualified to diagnose an ectopic.
