Pregnancy test confusion

in Trying to Get Pregnant
I need help! You guys dont know how confused I am right now. Okay I had a miscarriage January 3rd and a week after that my levels were down to 1,700. I took a test on January 30th and it came out an EXTREMELY faint line. So I kept testing every day til now. But they are all the same?? They dont get lighter or darker? I have some boob soreness. I'm aching everywhere. Had headaches for 2 weeks straight. Peeing constantly and having back pain. I took a digital test and it said Not Pregnant but when I took the test apart it was a very faint positive. Can anyone understand this?

    OP sorry for your loss. But you need to call your doctor and go back in to get your HCG levels checked again. They need to test down to zero. If a test is negative, chances are that your levels have decreased enough at this point that it is not reading on a test anymore. Taking it apart is not how they work.
