congrats, that is the first big step to a healthy pregnancy.  just because you had one eptopic does not mean you will have another.  i had 2 MC's and i am now pregnant again and so far so good.  so we are not doomed just because we had a problem last time.

i hope your next US, you see that little flicker, it is the best thing ever to see.

Hi there.  I don't know a whole lot but what I've learned going through my own pregnancy issues is that your HCG tends to fluctuate up and down in ectopic pregnancies.  An intravaginal ultrasound scan would help rule in or rule out that possibility.  Easier said than done, but try to not worry so much this weekend.  I think it's good that the hospital is following up with you closely.  It's nerve-wrecking, I know.  I'm having another ultrasound myself in 10 days and it feels like forever!  I wish you the best.
