pregnyl and pregnancy

I had one pregnyl shoot last Friday and tesed yesterday, 8 days after the injection. Had a positive test result and have pergnancy symptoms. Could the result be false?

Hi!
It is possible that the result is a false positive.  The best way to know for certain is to do a quantitative hcg level (blood test).  If the result is true the level will be rising rapidly.  A false positive result will dwindle down to zero.
Hope this helps!
