tubes claped, but i feel pregnant

i'm 23. I hade my tubes clamped back in 2001 after my first child was born.
  I long since regreted it.
  Last month my period was a day in a half.
I feel pregnant. Nausea, heart burn, moody, tired, and dizzy at times.
   Am i pregnant or is my body just playing tricks on me?

If you haven't already, then you need to take a pregnancy test.  Depending on how long it's been since you had that 1 1/2 day period, you may want to wait a week and take another one, if the first is negative.  If you do get a positive, you need to go to the doc and get a u/s.  Because you have clamped tubes, you are at a higher risk for ectopic(tubular) pregnancy, which can be life threatening.  If you still test negative after both tests and you aren't having any kind of discomfort or symptoms then I would wait a cycle and just see if your cycle got out of whack.  But if you start to have sharp lower abdominal pains, diarrhea, fever, chills, flu-like symptoms, then you need to go to the doctor or er for a u/s, you could have an ectopic pregnancy and still test negative on a hpt.  Good luck.

My friends mother got pregnant after her tubes were tied. I don't know if that is the same as them being clamped. I do know that there is no birth control that is 100% effective except no sex. And a hysterectomy. the chances are you are not pregnant, but it'a always possible. Take a test and that will tell you. A womans hormones can get all messed up for no reason at all and cause all kinds of weird things to our bodies. Good luck.
