On Sept 15th I had my blood work done for my diagnostic laparascopy. My surgery was on Sept 20th. Based on er surgery on the typed report from my ectopic, I was around 8 or 9 weeks preg. length at 3.5 mm, weighing 2.grams. If I am correct on assuming how far along I was, why did my pregnancy test come up negative? I'll let it alone after this, I'm still stumped. I've seen the hcg results from my pre-op blood work. When I was in the er, everyone, including sonogram room, looked perplexed. Thanx to everyone who has made this a little easier to deal with, Sincerely, Mary. >At Fri, 27 Oct 2000, Mary wrote:
