Wow, and here I thought I was crazy. My last period started on 4/11/05. I've never missed a period in the 14 years I've been menstruating. I've taken 4HPTs and all of been negative and one Dr.s urine test which was also negative. They did a pelvic exam and then decided to do a blood test, which we are waiting on the results from.
I am very much aware of my body and all its various 'foibles', I usually know almost to the minute when I am ovulating, and am always on time for my periods, and now I have missed two consecutive periods, and jumped a clothing size. I am more tired than usual, am urinating many more times a day than before, but haven't had any breast tenderness and no morning sickness (I was ill a few evenings in a row) but my mother and sister also never experienced these things. The nurse practicioner acted like she didn't even want to do an exam after the urine test came back negative, and i am the one who had to suggest the blood test. Prior to the pelvic she did detect some abdominal tenderness. I just recently quit my job to return to college and don't have insurance. None of the Planned Parenthood's in my area will do a blood test, so my only option was this NP at a walk in clinic....Any suggestions??
