Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
It is true that you were just too confused and took too many pills in a short span of time and this might had caused hormonal imbalance.
For accurate pregnancy test results, please do the test 15 days after last probable date of unprotected sexual intercourse. This will have an accuracy of 97 %.
Tests should be interpreted as per instructions and usually consistently positive results are to be accepted as possibility of pregnancy. Any faint line should appear darker on the subsequent test.
You might have irregular periods for the next cycle due to taking too many pills sometimes leading to delay. Please start taking a low dose pill from next cycle and continue the same it you desire not to have a pregnancy.
The most confirmatory test for pregnancy for a questionable pregnancy test is by doing blood test involving serum hCG levels which is highly accurate.
It looks like you might be having symptoms due to exertion after your vacation.
Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Your test is negative
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
The picture shows a negative pregnancy test. Keeping in mind that you followed instructions and the last date of probable unprotected sexual intercourse was more than 15 days back there is very less chance of pregnancy.
Please start taking low dose pills from your next cycle as per your choice. Emergency pills should not be taken more than once in 3 - 4 months as it can cause serious side effects and irregular cycles.
Hope your query is answered.

You can wait to repeat test after 15 days from sex
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
In that case please wait till about 15 days are over and then a test will accurately pick a positive pregnancy. Your periods may not be on time as expected due to taking pills to regulate them.
If your test is still negative after 15 days from last unprotected sex and your expected periods have not occurred even after a week then you can go ahead with getting the serum hCG test for peace of mind. This is highly accurate and is done in most laboratories. It is good that you have not taken emergency contraceptives.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
