Random bleed month after being ill

Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice/ experiences. I've been on Lucette for years with no issues. Last month, I had severe
tonsillitis and was on antibiotics. I was also vomiting frequently. I continued taking my pill, but I'm worried it didn't stay in my system.
My partner and I were active during this time. I had my withdrawal bleed as usual on my week off, but now (a week after that finished), I've started cramping and bleeding again. I took a pregnancy test 'just in case' and it shows a very faint line.
Has anyone else experienced breakthrough bleeding like this after being ill on the pill? And with a faint line this late after the 'scare' month, should I be concerned about the test accuracy? It was a clear blue but not a digital. Not sure if I flooded it? I struggle with health anxiety and OCD, so I'm spiraling a bit. Thank you.

Test with first morning urine on a first response (pink dye) test.
