That's the problem. . . Long story as short as possible. . .
I had to get a corticosteroid shot on cycle day 5 (the last day of my period) just before mid November. Well on day 13 of my cycle I started heavy spotting(mostly brown) every day for the next 16 days. I spoke with my OB and we agreed it's because of the shot. Basically I stopped spotting, for good it seems, yesterday. I tested randomly a few days ago and it was a definite negative. I have no idea where I am at in my cycle. I'm guessing everything is pretty screwed up and I'm not sure I even have a uterus lining to hold a fertilized egg at this point.
I'll test over next couple of days though. I want to figure out where I may be in my cycle. I'd like to get back to ttc asap!EmJ

Oh how frustrating! I once tried to take the pill continuously so I wouldn't get AF and I just bled lightly for 2 weeks straight until I stopped taking it. Some of us respond poorly to synthetic hormones. Since you just stopped spotting, I wouldn't expect you to O for another couple weeks, though anything is possible. That OPK is dark but definitely negative, and even in normal cycles it's common to get dark OPKs just after AF/1-2 weeks before O. I'd keep testing but don't be surprised if you see your OPKs fade out before darkening again later when you get a true positive.

You can actually be building lining even as old lining is still shedding, I know it's hard to believe but it grows from inside out so it can be growing anew while the old stuff is sloughing.
