Could I be pregnant?

Hi- I am 20 years old and on birth control pills (I have been on them a little more than 2 and a half months). I was on antibiotics (Amoxicilin) for ten days starting July 31 (did not know about the bc interaction). I was also taking a barbituate with asprin and caffein and I just read that barbituates can interfere with it too. I got my scheduled period on August 5 (the start of my placebo pills). Since that means that most of the time I was on the antibiotcs I was on the placebo pills does that mean that the antibiotics weren't a problem then? The only backup was our usual withdrawal. I'm not supose to get my next period until next Monday, but starting Friday (the 23) my breasts have been sore- not really the nipple though- under it and the sides. Also I got really bad gas on Thursday (the 22) - worse than ever and really bloated. I have had bad headaches for a while (but I attribute that to sinuses and the fact that I have nose surgery for a deviated septum July 9th), but I also have had some nausea in the afternoons lately, and dizzy and lightheadedness. I know all my symptoms could be attributed to other things- but the breast tenderness is too early for pms and I never get that anyway. Should I test? I'd have to wait a few more days though since my period isn't do for a while... or should I just wait for it to come? Thanks, >
