Hi;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
If you had 2 pink lines means the test is positive;but the path lab report said it is faint so you can wait for 3-4 days more as you just missed periods then repeat the test again with a first morning sample of urine.Or even better get a Beta HcG test done at a lab it will confirm that you are pregnant.
Thanks
