Three things keep your temp up

1)fever

2)persistent corpus luteum cyst

3)pregnancy.

I'd get the HPT and pray for the best. I've seen people with "blocked tubes" diagnosed elsewhere, get pregnant. The lighter bleeding could be implantation bleeding.

*******Important******* With abnormal tubes, this may be an ectopic pregnancy and you should see your doctor immediately for follow up of ßHCGs to rule in or rule out this problem. A sonogram may be necessary in the near future.
