feeling lightheaded, tired and dizzy, took 2 tests, one yes and one no, am i pregnant?






    
Asked by Unregistered (Female; 27; extremely fertile but cannot have babies! out of the 5 times i've been pregnant i've only had one and that was miraculous considering all the complications i went through. and the miscarriages ranged from 6 weeks to 6 months. ) on Sun 15, Jun 2008 05:53am :

i have been feeling lightheaded, dizzy, faint & tired.i was hoping it might just be that im pregnant so i bought a test (generic brand) & it clearly came up positive. i still have a few more days til my period so i found that kind of odd that the test would be positive. so yesterday i bought first response & said negative. so i took both at the same time this morning & same answers,1 yes & 1 no! the way i've been feeling i'd be worried if i wasnt pregnant. should i go by first response, the most accurate at-home pregnancy test there is, so the box says?

Hi, You cannot believe any of the tests. At this point of time - you would need to consult your OBG specialist and get a blood test for beta- HCG levels. This is confirmatory for pregnancy in cases such as yours where the urine pregnancy test kit is not helpful. You would need a quantitative test for confirmation. For more information on this you could refer to - http://www.babyhopes.com/articles/blood-test.html Regards.
