new here, help

I think I posted a question in the wrong forum. So I will try this one. I think this is the right place for my question. I am 35 almost 36 yrs old. I have had many many miscarriges but also I have an 18yr old son and twin boys that  just turned 8 yesterday. Here is my problem,
I had my lasy cycle Dec. 23d give or take a few days. I did not have a cycle in Jan. at all. Early Feb I took a pregnancy test that was positive. A couple of weeks later I showed up to the obgyn, I should have been 8wks. Because my history the doc sent me out to ultra-sound...it showed me at 5 1/2wks.I know you aren't suppose to see much that early so that isen't  my worry. I was on birth control in Dec however I missed a few pills and and then I got sick and my doc put me on anti-biotics. I know they interfere with birth-control so I stopped  taking them. The birth-control that is.
I should be officially 6wks today. I am having cramping and lower back-ache  sometimes severe and am worried that maybe a micarriege is empending. There has been No sigh of bleeding which I've always had with micarriege. My doc app. is still a whole month away and I am wondering if there is any thing growing. If there is I am probably worriying myself into micarriege. I do not know any blood levels and the ultrasound did not show any baby nor heart beat. Which I know if I was only 5 1/2 wks it probably wouldn't. I don't know if I should try to reschedule my March 18th app to an earlier date or should I just wait the month out. I told the doc about my cramping and he did not seem too worried. However miles away the ultrasound tech seemed to give me condolece looks. I just don't understand why the mess up in dating .Could the anti-biotics and dropping the pill contribute to the dating issues? Please help... very confused  also....whats up with all the cramps and pain. My breasts aren't as sore as they were and being exhausted is the only pregnancy symptom I have other than pain! Help.................

I would recommend demanding a blood test to check hcg levels. If this is done and then done 48 hours later you should see a significant rise to ease your worries. OR it should let you know if the inevitable is on it's way. YOu're doctor owes you at least this. Good luck.
