hcg deemed an "inappropriate number"

Had blood drawn yesterday, They called me right away today to say my hcg was "an inappropriate number" and they want a scan tomorrow. I freaked. The nurse who called me didn't expect that or even have my results to tell me. I had to poke and prod different departments to get it.
32,178. Why is this inappropriate? What? They have me dated later by my lmp( 7w2d ), but my o date was 3-4 days after a normal o date so I calculate 6w6d.

Has anyone experienced this?

  • That looks like a good number? Have you had previous hcg tests done? Maybe they haven't doubled? Hope everything is ok though.

  • Only other beta was 14dpo, 63. And It's pretty exact and doubled every 48 hours. By the number.

    I found this. Seems like you fit in the range...

    7 – 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 – 229,000 mIU/ml

    ETA..copy and paste didn't work.

  • No idea why she would call them inappropriate if they're doubling. Hopefully you get some good news asap.
