Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Faint line in pregnancy test and having spotting at 5 weeks pregnancy is not a good sign. You could be still pregnant but carries a risk of miscarriage with such results and symptoms.
You need to take adequate physical and mental rest. Eat healthy foods and drink good quantity of water.
Kindly get a trans-vaginal ultrasound scan (TVS) of pelvis done immediately to know the status of your pregnancy and consult Gynecologist with the report for appropriate management.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
