Anyone Hear of B-sure Pregnancy Tests Being Invalid????? Posted: 11-17-05 07:27am
I went to my local dollar store yesterday
to purchase a pregnancy test, and the only
tests they had were a brand called b-sure,
so I grabbed 2 for $2.18. I took them
home and I reseached the name on the
internet and come to find out that in
march of this year the manufacturer of
this brand voluntaraly took it off the
shelves because they said it was sometimes
giving false results (pos. And neg), but
don't all tests have a chance of being
wrong?? Anyway I decided to try it
anyway, and this morning when I went to
open the box I also noticed that it
expired last month, now will this truley
make it invalid??? Just wondering
because I sure feel pregnant but my period
is still about 5 or 6 day away, but I
tested with the darn thing anyway, but of
course it came out neg. So I guess I will
just have to wait it out, but I was
wondering if anyone else has heard of this
brand and its quality? Thanks, kelly
j.
P.S. Anyone have an answer or reply to
my thyroid post??

Well they have a ummm like a percentage of
how offen they can be wrong like f. D.
A allowable failure rate for condoms is 4
in 1000 picked randomly so if they are
being wrong more offen than they should
they will pull 'em

So do you think with the fact that I am
testing verry early, the test being
recalled and expired (by one month) the
results arent to be too trusted, I am
going to test again with the second test
on sunday that way it is closer to when my
period usually starts, but what ever the
outcome, with all the symptoms I have been
having I am going to mention it to my Dr.
On monday and maybe he will test me>
who knows, I am begining to think I may be
imagining it all, but the symptoms are soo
real it is undeniable something is wrong,
just this would be what I want to be
wrong, so maybe I am thinking too far into
it. Sorry babbling, I am just soo
emotionally spent and I really havent told
anyone except you guys here in the forum
so I am kinda alone for right now until I
know more.. Thanks for listening, and
feel free to share your stories with me on
how you felt when you were first preggers
and if you knew you were befor any tests
said so. Take care, kelly j.
