Hello dear
I understand your concern
I think it is either error in the pregnancy test or in the blood HCG test.
Urine pregnancy test will give positive result when the blood HCG will rise > 25 mIU/ml.
Your symptoms looks like pregnancy also.
But HCG 0-3 does not indicate the pregnancy.
So i think something was wrong in blood HCG test..
I advise you to go for repeat test and also go for USG scan, reproductive hormone analysis for better management.
Hope this may help you
