Brief Answer:
Repeat bhcg tomorrow advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic
I understand your anxiety related to the issue.
It doesn't seem to be rising adequately.
I would request for a repeat bhcg test tomorrow and the levels will tell us the status of pregnancy.
In general bhcg levels double up every 48 hours so let's hope for the best.
Regards
Dr Manisha

I will be 5 weeks by then according to my LMP, so I should be at least 1000? If it's not what does that mean?

Brief Answer:
Unhealthy pregnancy is more likely

Detailed Answer:
If the levels are below this then chances of healthy pregnancy in future are low but conclusive evidence can be obtained only on ultrasound at 7 weeks gestation.
