Can Rheumatoid Arthritis Mask HCG Levels?
Hello, I have rheumatoid arthritis and think I am pregnant. I have had several negative UPTs and 2 negative serum preg tests. I have felt movement in my abdomen for almost 8 wks and have my 2nd appt with my OB-GYN for a definitive u/s next week. I still feel pregnant with pregnancy symptoms. Could my RA be masking my HCG levels?

No that is highly unlikely but you should see your gynaecologist for the final verdict over this issue .
