Hi,
Thanks for your question.
You should exclude pregnancy by repeating your test again to avoid false negatives.
These symptoms may represent weakness due to Malaria, influence of hormone variation in your body, PMS, or an undiagnosed pregnancy, may be ectopic.
So, also have one trans-vaginal ultrasound to exclude this possibility.
Take care.
