Well a blood test is pretty accurate. Only human error can cause wrong results.
Were your pregnancy test results positive before the 10 minute mark? After 10 minutes it is called a evap line meaning not pregnant even though there is a line there.
My HPT was positive, but the urine test at my doctor's was negative. Huh? Urine-based pregnancy tests vary widely in sensitivity. Often a home-based test (HPT) is much more sensitive than the kind your doctor's office uses. (Often doctors or clinics use tests that are sensitive to 50-100 mIU/mL of hCG; most home tests detect a level of 15-50 mIU/mL of hCG. See the HPT Overview for various HPT sensitivities.)
Practically speaking, this usually works just fine. By the time a woman suspects pregnancy and confirms with her doctor, she has usually missed her period, is farther along in her pregnancy, and has higher levels of hCG in her urine-- so a less-sensitive test will suffice. On the other hand, women who are trying to conceive and/or monitor their fertility are often much more in tune with their cycles and the potential for pregnancy, and therefore test earlier with more sensitive tests. So this scenario is actually fairly common. Because HPT's are extremely reliable, you should consider yourself pregnant following a positive test. Your doctor should retest your urine again in a few days, after your hCG has had time to increase.

If I were you I would go see another doctor. When I first got pregnant I had a bad experience with my first doctor b/c they didn't know what they were talking about and I switched doctors and now everything is a- ok. Good luck

Don't take another test. If you haven't missed a period yet then it very hard to tell yet. I had a friend that had to wait 3 months to be sure (ultrasound) because of medication she was on.
It's just beyond modern medicine. Calm down and wait.

sometimes your HCG levels can be really low so they can't detect the pregnancy. So, they would have to wait a few days to see if those HCG levels increase or decrease. It's not unheard of. Be patient, take care of yourself and go back to the Dr.

It never hurts to see what another doctor has to say. I'd probably not take the meds until they can until you for sure.

blood tests are pretty definitive, I would wait for your period to show, if it doesn;t go back.
