I went to the doctor today like I told you I was going to last night. I got a negative urine test and asked to get a blood test and they told me that they are less accurate than urine test. I don't know what to do now. Any ideas? I tried calling different doctors and they all said the same thing. Thanks in advance ladies.

***!?!

I mean...I guess it depends if they do a Qual versus a Quant...if their pee test is more sensitive then their Qual cut off it could be...say the pee test could be sensitive to >25...and their blood test may be >50...KWIM?

But if they do a Quant ANY hCG will show up...

Stupid doctors office...
