Called and talked with my favorite nurse this morning.  The one I talked to yesterday isn’t the brightest tool in the shed.   She confirmed my levels were at 641 at 4 weeks 1 or 2 days.  She thought those numbers looked really good and said that I really didn’t need to get my levels checked again, unless I was spotting or felt that I needed to.  Because of my past experiences, I will be going in first thing tomorrow to see if they have doubled.  

So……I am HAPPY again : )
I was sooo bummed yesterday.

Your level is great for 4 weeks - you are in the normal range and should not be concerned.  I don't know what your doc is on about as everything looks great to me.  I posted on here a while ago with my 4 week results (825) and everyone said it was great and most people had much lower than yours - even down to 60 and all turned out ok.  I guess the main thing is that they double every 48 / 72 hours so the next test will tell you more.  But i wouldn't worry. - Good luck.

Thanks for posting those levels.  I found out this afternoon by calling my doctor's nurse. I wonder if I heard the levels wrong or if they have my LMP date wrong.  I will call the nurse first thing tomorrow and get the number again.  Hopefullly I heard her right. I will let you know.
