Did she get an answer yesterday?

You can go to a planned parenthood, they give free pregnancy tests, and they can tell for sure if you are or not.

Umm I called the doctor and it seems that my hormons arent strong enough for the urine test and planned parent hood only gives the urine test or I have to pay the 100 to get an ultrasound!, which I dont have the money for , thats why my doctor told me I needed an ultrasound or a bloode test , but as I said before I dont have the money to get it done!

According to what i've been reading on the pregnancy forum, shouldn't her horomone levels be really high if she was 6 weeks pregnant?

Yeah, .I'm 6wks, &mine are almost up in the 8000s.
I mean, .I guess everyone is different,
but if they're that low that a hpt still wouldn't be picking it up,
couldn't that be... Bad?

There is a possibility she's not pregnant, but her symptoms certainly seem like pregnancy don't they?

Is there somewhere you can get the blood test, instead of an ultrasound? I'd assume that would be cheaper.

A bloodtest is definitely a lot cheaper. I wish .I had one of my bills up here from the doctor- but .I don't. I know my last u/s was $226. I think bloodtests are around $100. That's still expensive when you don't have a job or any way to get that kind of money, though.

I guess all that can be done is wait for af or wait another week or two &then test again.

Didn't she say the ultrasound was going to be $100? That's crazy expensive for anything! :\ this has to do with human life; ya shouldn't have to pay for stuff like that in my opinion.

I know. Even if it's a life or death situation, they'll do it &then bill you up the arse later on. It sucks. My boyfriend was hospitalized about 2 years ago, &it was life or death. If he hadn't of gone &got the treatment, he would've died. 2 years later, he's still getting bills. It's ridiculous. I mean, it makes sense because you know, nothing comes for free &doctors have to make money, too. But the cost of some of this stuff is absolutely absurd.

I don't know about where you're from, but here in cleveland, you can go to the outpatient lab, pay $15 and get a pregnancy blood test. You call in 4 hours later, and they give you the results. My doctor wouldn't schedule me an appt. Until I did that.

If your body is showing such signs of pregnancy, i'm amazed a pregnancy test - even urine ones - don't come up positive!

I hope you find the answer you are looking for. Good luck!

Whether you're pregnant or not..... You really need to see a doctor. B/c if you are pregnant, I don't think it's a good sign to not have enough hcg to get a positive..... And if you're not pregnant, you have another issue that needs addressed.

I have to say that when I was about a month late I took a pregnancy test and it came up negative. I started cramping a few weeks after that and assumed I would be getting my period. That was going one for about 1 month. I did another pregnancy test about a month after that and it came up positive. I was about 3 months pregnant when I found out. Every woman's body is different and may not produce the hormone at the same rate or normal rate as another woman. I'm not sure if you want to be pregnant, it really doesn't sound like you are financially equipped to handle it. It's important to find out as soon as possible so you can start taking care of yourself, like eating healthy and taking you vitamins and maybe excercising! Also, to prepare yourself mentally! Well, good luck and hopefully the outcome is what you want it to be!
