I took an HPT and was very confused. How do I know what it really says?

there is a very good chance that you could be. wait a couple more days, see if you start. if you dont, take another. chances are, you might have to see a doctor to confirm, but take one in a couple of days just to see if there is any change

If in doubt - throw it out! Go on Physican's Desk Reference web site or to local library and look up pill pictures in the PDR. Do NOT take the pill - or allow anyone else to - if you can't identify what it is!

Talk to the doctor that ordered the tests.\n\nYou can't be absolutely certain that a person online is really what they say they are.

a percentage sample was taken.\nprobably at multiple places and multiple times to determine a "peak" sample.\nhow does a nurse or doctor know what your heart rate is?\nThey check for 15 seconds and then mulitply by 4.\nThey didn't get the actual count for 60 seconds, but a sample and they projected.

how were you measuring the pH? if it was a pH meter maybe it wasn't calibrated correctly/ recently?? or if it was with litmus paper.... maybe it went bad? I'm not sure if it can... check and see if there could have been an expiration date. i don't think temperature would have that drastic of an effect unless you did the experiment at pH7 and a seriously high (like about 60C) temp and the other ones at room temp or 37C (body temp)... sorry i cant help anymore then that, that's very strange!

False -'s are far more common than false +'s. If you are pregnant, you might have tested too soon so the hormone wouldn't be as prevalent. Or it could be simply human error. If you still suspect you are pregnant, make an appointment with a doctor. They are the only one's who can tell you for sure.

really, you would have to be in training to interpret it.  i am in med school and have had anatomy and have taken an elective in reading mri and ct's and i wouldn't trust myself to read them.  either try to bump your appointment up or do whatever you can to not think about it until then.

you may have adjusted to the hormone you may have to change to a different dosage/method.  But you need to call your physican just to rule out anything else that could possibly be happening.

You can either look it up or determine it experimentally.\nI cant get much more specific without additional details.

The test you had would have been a fasting blood sugar level.  It does not come back as a positive or negative, but as a number indicating the level of sugar in your blood at the time.  You could always have the test repeated if you are worried, but I would discuss the result with the doctor first and see if your results were on the borderline of being high.  Most of your symptoms could be related to other things.  Is your diet healthy?  You could be very thirsty because your diet is high in sugar or salt, drinking more will lead to urinating more.  Maybe you are excessively hungry because your diet is not containing the right foods - do you eat a lot of refined carbohydrates like white bread, cakes, biscuits, sugar, if so you may need to change to whole grain and low GI carbohydrates which will make you feel more full.  Protein will also help.  You could be tired due to a poor diet as well.  And the irritability could be related to your diet or lifestyle.  Do you exercise enough?  You may need to have your eyes checked to make sure you don't need glasses.   I am only speculating here, but if you fit the description you may just need to look at your lifestyle and change a few things to feel 100% better.  Good luck!!

unfortunately, after it happens, there is no way of testing or knowing. i had something like the same thing happen a bit back, and i asked the doctor and she said that if its done and passed through already, there is no way of knowing but that it sounds like it was a miscarriage. your situation sounds like it may have been, but it is also possible that it was just a weird period.

im a medical assistant at a drug testing facility. we have to tell people that the test in inconclusive or "non-negative" because we cant tell you that its positive. more than likely it will be if they sent it to the lab though. some medications, however, do show up (pain med, etc.). if it were diluted (too much water) it would have showed negative on a quick screen. (those only show neg or positive). e-mail me if you want to.

Look at the bottom of the screen when they show you the before and after shots.. It usually says Results will vary in small writing, sometimes more\nThey can't guarantee anything, especially if they say results will vary!

For heavens sake, you won't take the advice of a bunch of people you don't know and who don't know either you or your condition? \nGET YOURSELF TO AN ENDOCRINOLOGIST, you could seriously damage yourself if you get the dosage wrong!!!
