I am not a doctor, but if I were you instead of wasting my money on a hpt. I would just go to the doctor because he will do one and plus you may need to be taken off of those pill and prescribed something elese. More and likely you aren't pregnant, but their is always a possiblity. Don't really worry about those cocktail drinks unless you are really futher along in pregnancy. I did they same thing with my first little boy, I was month pregnant at New Years of 98 and I dranked alot. Well I just about went crazy when I found out 3 weeks later I was pregnant. My doctor told me at that time the baby is on his own not depending on me as much. But no more drinking. I haven't dranked since that day. Well good luck

Hope this helps alittle Lori 35 weeks and counting
