Diarrhea, Nausea, Headaches, Back Pain, Slight Discharge. Negative Pregnancy Tests. Can I Be Pregnant?

I am 14 days late. I've been having diarrhea every morning for just over a week. Feeling nauseas, headaches, lower back pain and slight cramps from time to time. I some times have a slight discharge thinking it will be my period but its not. I've also taken a pregnacy test on the 11th day late and 13th day both negative. I messed up on the second one and did not urinate enough and nothing came up. Theen tried again later on the same test and it was negative. Can I be pregnant?

Hello and welcome to HCM,

Pregnancy is unlikely as you have got a negative pregnancy test of various occasions.
The presence of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, back pain and cramps are another set of symptoms unrelated to pregnancy.
These symptoms suggest a gastrointestinal problem.
This could be due to food a gastrointestinal upset due to infection, food poisoning, etc.
Get a stool examination done.
It will identify if there is presence of any infectious agent in the stool.
For symptomatic relief you can take an anti-spamodic like dicyclomine for the abdominal cramps.

Consult your doctor for a clinical examination, investigations and appropriate medication.

Thanks and take care
