Your low HCG is a pretty accurate test and suggests absence of preg. Who ordered it? If it was your OB or MD they should have examined you wit a follow up after your blood test. Without that the best I can say is that you are not pregnant.

Knowing how "low" your blood betaHCG level was would be quite helpful. Consulting an MFM specialist, a credentialed gyn sonographer and or a Gyn Oncologist may be the best way to get answers to your questions and explain your symptoms.
