3 tests positive but B - HCG negative. Possible?
Today is my 11 dpo. Yesterday was very very faint second line on 2 tests (difference brand).
Today FMU was another second line (in gallery). I go to laboratory on B-HCG and result is negative :(
After I return from labo, i did another test (not FMU) and ther is a pale second line.
Is this even possible?
Please, help.
P.S. I dont know english very well so please write as simple as you could :) Thank you!

There are a couple of possibilities. Do you know if you had a quantitative or qualitative blood test? Quantitative tells you the exact number of hcg in your system. Generally, if the number is under 5 or so, it is considered negative. Qualitative just tells you yes or no - generally, if the number is under a certain amount (like 5 or 10), they just tell you no. So it is possible that your number is too low currently to be considered positive. Whether it is on the way up or not, time will tell.
The other possibility is that hcg leaves the blood faster than the urine. So you can still have positive pee tests when the bloodwork says no.
Good luck!
