HI there Ladies,
I have been getting very very faint lines on First Reponse Early Result hpt’s and each one is showing up extremely faint, but can see it better when i take the strip out and then look at it..they have all appeared with in the time frame..I was just wondering, if anyone got extremly faint lines like that and got a positive blood test result after?

I feel very pregnant, but just a tad disheartened as all the tests i have taken are still very faint..i have irregular periods so would have no clue when i would of gotten pregnant or even when i would of ovulated..also a hpt would not show a line in the test area if it was not positive right?

Please leave serious anwers..Thank you heaps.

Sam asked:


you know the ones those handheld devices, that you have to use a lancet that punctures the skin then you put blood on the strip then you put it in the device.

If you can find out if you have diabetes or not, what is number do you have to be below
(My father gave me this to test myself, and he said you dont have to go to the hospital and do it, he said you can do it by myself)

I have heard that the product “CardioChek” involves multiple pricking of fingers. Could someone recommend a simple fairly reliable test strip?

JL asked:


I just picked up one of these. It was quite expensive (over $100 with the test strips). These new ones claim to test for HDL and Triglycerides. Anyone know about these meters? I got it from CVS. If it’s not accurate (like the old ones) I’d like to just not use it and return it. I just wanted to be able to accurately check my cholesterol at home without the expense and hassle of going to the doctor/lab. Thanks for any help!

I had a Breast Biopsy, and it only started to ooze once i showered for the first time. This edges of the steri strips have lifted which is allowing the liquid to escape. I do not know if i maybe popped a stich or something?
I had a breast biopsy and my doctor told me i could remove the bandage 2 days after the surgery and i could shower the next day, he told me nothing about keeping the area dry, either did the nurse. The stiches i have in should dissolve on their own he said as wel..
