Brief Answer:
Serum beta hCG blood test

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

These symptoms are unrelated to pregnancy.

All you have is gastritis with mild viral fever leading to bodyache.

All you need to do is to have an antacid and a paracetamol available over the counter and sleep. Take a day off and rest , you will be fine.

You don't need anything else other than this.

If you are very much suspicious of pregnancy and want to rule out please get serum beta hCG blood test done to confirm / ruleout pregnancy possibilities. This test is more accurate.

Let me know if you have more doubts.

Regards

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I guess you are concerned about pregnancy chances.

These symptoms are not related to pregnancy alone.

If you wish to confirm or rule out pregnancy for sure please get serum beta hCG blood test which is more accurate.
