Hi,

Yes, its best to rule out pregnancy with a serum BHCg test(a Blood Test),since she is 9 days over her expected date of period.Also having all these varied symptoms could point to a complication of pregnancy.So it is best to rule if she is pregnant or not.
Sometimes ,if she has a condition called ectopic pregnancy, where the pregnancy is located outside the womb, she can have a faint line on Urine pregnancy test and also have these symptoms. So,my main concern right now would be to rule out Ectopic, with a blood test called Hcg and an ultrasound scan.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
