Could I be miscarrying?

I started taking the pill (Mercilon) three days before my period was due, so date of LMP is around 4th April. I had some spotting after sex with my DH two weeks ago but didn't think much of it (was halfway through my pill pack at this point).

I started spotting again a few days ago, brownish with tiny clots in, and it has now become bright red but not period-heavy. I was still taking the pill at this point. Last pill was yesterday. However I am having really really bad cramps and lower back ache, been vomiting, feeling dizzy and having night sweats.

I took an early pregnancy test yesterday but it was negative.

I am going to see the nurse later today, but just wondering what you wise MNers think? Is this just a random late / early period because I messed up the timing on my pills? I didn't think it was possible to get a period while actually physically taking the pill; usually my period comes a couple of days after finishing the 3 week cycle of pills.

Thanks for any advice; I'm worried that it might be an early MC.
