Hi!
Yes.  Unless you have had it surgically removed, you still have a left tube.  Also, a tubal abortion doesn't necessarily mean that the tube is permanently sealed.  You could have a normal pregnancy, or more importantly, you could have an ectopic.  If you do have a positive home test, call your doctor right away so he/she can follow the pregnancy hormone levels and do an early ultrasound to be sure that the pregnancy is normal!
Good luck!
