lengthy bleeding

I am 8.5 weeks pregnant with my first.  At week 4 started spotting. At 5.5 weeks hCG levels at over 36000.  Thought I miscarried just a day after first exam, at 6 weeks, passes large clots.  But at checkup next week, discovered hCG level almost doubled.  Ultrasound revealed viable pregancy of 6.5 weeks gestation with heartbeat, and  fibroid which was under the embryo.  Doctor said bleeding might be related to the fibroid. My next appt is at 12 weeks.  But I am still bleeding, dark clottish brown spotting, every day.  Does anyone have similar experience with positive outcome?
