+++ I tried the hook effect theory, any thoughts please

My levels fluctuated with the ectopic :-/ not saying that's what you have but you NEED to get checked out Hun!!!

I really think this is very odd Maureen and not typical for a full miscarriage, something different must be going on! If as you said your beta was going down from 37 to 13 to 0 the FRER certainly would not be that dark, barely there for sure! That is one dark test, and your bleeding stopped.. so weird.. Wish I had more ideas for you, this is one area I don't know much about.

just wanted to mention my tests got darker then lighter then darker again and not they are negative. It could just be that your urine is more concentrated and picking up more hcg.. the only way to be certain about what is going on is blood work.

Thanks ladies, I know it's not a good pregnancy but I just want it to be negative on tests so that all hope can be gone and I can move on , I'll get betas run again on Monday unless they go negative before then , I'll also ask for a scan to make sure it's not etopic

 

[sjwebb]

I've never had an ectopic but I would think if it was you would be having some pain by now...but I know everybody is different..

 

[Babee_Bugs]

i still cant believe how dark your tests are hopefully come monday you have abit more of an idea on what is actually going on x

 

[enj]

I hope your doing well hun.

 

[AndreaFlorida]

I think you're still pregnant or something....your HCG shouldn't be going up and down like that an now its going back up from the tests....I duno whats going on but I can't wait to find out!!!

 

[maureenmarsh]

Me too, I just want some answers

 

[sjwebb]

Any new tests?

 

[maureenmarsh]

I'll test again in about an hour when I get home

 

[maureenmarsh]

Still poitive but lighter the yesterdays, maybe i wont have to cal the doc tomorrow

 

[maureenmarsh]

and here they are by themselves

 

[_jellybean_]

Yeah...they're lighter. They've been going up and down so much that I would still give a call hon. xoxoxo

 

[maureenmarsh]

your most likely right, those tests I just posted are the ones i just took and they are darker for sure then this mornings test

 

[maureenmarsh]

here they are togeather, top is this mornings and bottom is the one I just did, my beta was 37 last tuesday, it should be gone by now

 

[maureenmarsh]

sorry, I didnt realize how dark that last photo was, here they are in a different room of my house, top was this morning bottom was now

Have you tried diluting your urine and seeing if it gets really dark? Idk just trying to help but maybe the labs are screwed up or something. I just want everything to be ok for you so bad. Either way call the docs tomorrow to make sure there's nothing seriously wrong.

 

[maureenmarsh]

What do you mean by diluting pee , why would that make it darker ?

 

[mindyb85]

Idk it seems like all your tests are darker later in the day with more dilute pee. Maybe the hcg levels are actually really high throwing off the tests.
