What is the % to get a fake positive pregnancy tes?

My primary Dr. did a urine pregnancy test in her office it came back positive. I was really surprised and shocked, nothing that I was expecting. I told her a you serious? she replied yes, my MA did it twice the first one slightly showed positive so she did a second one. The second one showed positive right away. I was still not believing it so I asked my Dr. to send me to get a blood test. She did, MA called me saying it was still positive. That night on the way home I bought a home pregnancy test and it came out positive as well. So yesterday I was in Mexico decided to get an ultrasound and they weren't able to no sac. He said to go back in two weeks to check again. he did mentioned to me that maybe all three test were positive due to a cyst I have. So now I feel all confused. Has anyone been through this or suggest anything? Thank you!

False positives are EXTREMELY rare,  and you've got three positives there.

You're pregnant.

Having a cyst will not make you have a positive test.....I've had them on my right and never got a positive until I was actually pregnant and I now only have one ovary on the left and they found another cyst on it and a few weeks I found out I was pregnant again.

It is extremely rare for a false positive especially that many of them. You could just be so early that they cant detect it. You could just be 3-4 weeks pregnant. But you sound pregnant.
