I am so confused and nervous. I had my tubes banded 6 years ago and because of this my MD is very hesitant about doing tests. I have taken many home tests and all have come back negative. My monthly cycle is usually the first week of every month and lasts 5 days, no less, heavy for the first 3 days and slow for the last 2 days. Four months ago I didn't get it at all and sense then it has been maybe 3 days and very light and it has been in the middle of the month. I have been having several signs of pregnancy. Nausia, tender breasts, weight gain, lower back pain, etc. I have been pregnant 9 times with 3 live births so I am very familiar with the symptoms. I am wondering if there is something else, that I should be concerned with, has the same symptoms. Does anyone know?
