Had an HCG of only 8 and light bleeding

I have just recently had a blood pregnancy test  and the HCg level was only at 8. I am having some light bleeding and the doctor only told me that I could just be really early or I could be about the have a miscarriage. I have had a miscarriage before and an ectopic pregnancy resulting in a surgery to remove a fallopion tube. Does anyone have any idea what i should be thinking?

When was your LMP?? When do you think you O'd?? Do you have any idea how far along you are? Are they drawing again in 48 hours??
Its very possible that you are just very early in your pregnancy. If your HCG levels double (or according to my Dr. anything 60% or more is acceptable) within 48 hours chances are the pregnancy is progessing just fine.

It is hard to say. Are they going to do a repeat of the hcg level?
