Am I having an ectopic pregnancy?

Hello, about 2 weeks ago I had one day of blood through discharge. I didn't think much of it as had been intimate with hubby and shrugged it off. Last week I was feeling pretty poorly, nauseous in the mornings etc. Thursday comes and the blood through discharge and brown watery discharge is back. I took a pregnancy test on Friday and it was negative. The brown watery discharged continued over the weekend but I thought my body was just having a moment. Monday I notice blood, not through discharge just blood, but not like a period, it was very light compared to a period and by lunchtime a had a horrific pain very low on my left hand side, so bad that I felt like I couldn't breathe properly when walking. I called the docs who called me in to be seen and he just put my straight onto antibiotics. I'm now on day 3 of antibiotics and the bleeding & brown watery discharge has stopped but the pain low on my left is still there, although not as severe, but I now have really bad pain under my rib on my left hand side. The pain under my ribs has been consistent for about 6 hours now. My plan is to take another pregnancy test in the morning to see if this now shows as positive but I'm quite worried 😟

I should mention I am on the contraceptive injection so chances of falling pregnant are pretty low I think!

Id do the other test now, it's an emergency if it is ectopic
