I am so sorry about all this drama. It would be good to know what the 2nd beta was to see if perhaps it is decreasing? If it rises slowly it is said to indicate a tubal, but if it doubles normally then decreases it indicates a m/c. Although my RE says betas are unreliable generally, he does go by a certain "rule" to indicate a good pregnancy. That is, the betas must increase by 60% every 48 hours. Yours obviously have not, so it does not sound good, which I am sure you have already figured out. I hope thought that it is a chemical pregnancy (early m/c) and not a tubal though! I would corner your doctor for some answers. Good luck and so sorry about this!
