Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Gosh Hon, you must be so frustrated and upset. When I got my positive result, it was very, very faint. I called the manufacturer and they also said that if there is ANY trace of a line, it is considered a positive result. That line is only supposed to show up when HCG is detected in your urine. I sincerely hope it's just too early for your Dr's urine test to show positive. Here's a chart of the sensitivity of various HPT's: http://www.fertilityplus.org/faq/hpt.html maybe your Dr's office one wasn't as sensitive as the ones you chose? I'm keeping you in my thoughts, as I certainly know how you feel! Hugs, Shari please please help me Yesterday morning I took a FRE and got a postive however it was very light...since it was so light I made two other ppl look at it and when they agreed that they saw a line I then went out and bought an EPT test..again, a faint positive...when I got home late that night I took a Walmart brand Equate PG test..again, same thing, faint line. I have symptoms..and we were trying.... so i went to my regular doctor today and he did a urine. He said it was negative.. I had to talk him into doing a blood test..which of course the lab was closed by the time i got there so i have to wait till tomorrow... I think I may still be a little bit before AF is due..by a day or so, but maybe not... So my question is...with 3, no make that 4 because just now I did another FRE and got the same results...Am I really not pregnant?? Everyone kept saying that a faint line is still a line...i'm so sad..all i want to do is cry. My doc says he doesnt think so but to test again in a week...this is killing me....so i will go in for a blood test in the morning but then have to wait till wednesday to get the results....i'm so upset...what do you guys think my chances are??

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 I had a very faint positive and it was positive but the only way they could tell was thru the blood test since I was so early. you probably are pegnant, just early. get the bloodwork drawn and then call the nurse later at your docs office and ask her to get you the results so you do not have to wait. My nurses here at Ob and PCP have gotten my results in the later afternnon aprt of the day when called. good Luck, I hope you get good news, God Bless, Robin, NorthEastern, NY Age- 41 EDD- July 27th, 2004 IT'S A BOY!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Hi Christie Do you happen to be on any hormonal medication that may cause a false positive?? If not just hang in there another week and get another one and see what it says.. should it be negative... dont get upset, just keep trying. I know how it feels to want a baby and nothing to happen... it was 4 years before my husband and I welcomed baby number one home... and 13 years later we are working on baby number 4. But usually any line at all is a positive on those home pregnancy tests. Let us know how it goes. The blood test should tell you without a doubt. > Yesterday morning I took a FRE and got a postive however it was very > light...since it was so light I made two other ppl look at it and when they agreed > that they saw a line I then went out and bought an EPT test..again, a faint > positive...when I got home late that night I took a Walmart brand Equate PG > test..again, same thing, faint line. > I have symptoms..and we were trying.... > so i went to my regular doctor today and he did a urine.
