Ectopic or not? What is going on!?

J-

Yesterday I was told there was no way I would have a viable pregnancy because my HCG was at 168. We only had sex once this month on July 25th. I’m about 3.5 weeks I guess. They said it’s likely ectopic because I have cramps and on and off brown discharge. But today’s HCG (24 hours later) was 223. So now they are saying they aren’t sure anymore. Ugh!!! They said the levels are still low and it could be an early pregnancy. Is that even possible looking at the time we had sex this month?

Please help me calculate this. I cannot go through these emotions over and over again. Last night I was a messed mourning my loss. Today I’m told I may still have a chance. 🤦‍♀️🙏
