high progesterone levels in early pregnancy

[charley brown]

i have just found out that i am pregnant however i had a minimal bleed the other day so i went to the hospital yo have an ultra sound, but they ould not see anything, they said it could be too early so they gave me a blood test to measure hgc levels and progesterone levels. i have just got my results and the nurse was quite concerned as my hgc is 455 and my progesterone is 160!!
the nurse sais this level is abnormally high and i have had to do another test today. does anyone know what this means i am quite worried. thanks.
