Is my pregnancy test positive?

It has been a rough couple of months for me. I was on the birth control Yaz, taking it everyday as instructed. With my luck, the pills weren't effective and on October 5th I learned I was pregnant, at the time I was 24. Even though I was completely shocked, I was the only one excited about the news. My boyfriend showed very little support and was negative about the whole situation the majority of the time. He didn't want me keeping the baby, but never actually said those exact words to me- That was just the vibe he was sending me. I eventually became so stressed I started spotting, which eventually led to me bleeding (almost as though I was having a light period). With no insurance and without a job at the time, I as unable to find a doctor who would actually take the time to see me- even when I expressed fear that I may be having complications. I managed to find a free care clinic that was willing to give me a ultrasound, but that was about it. It was the week before Halloween that I got to see the life growing inside me for the first time and unfortunately, it was the last time too. Going on 9 weeks, I miscarried and was on bed rest for almost two weeks. I am still trying to heal emotionally, mentally... even physically. After a few weeks of having the miscarriage, I started feeling like I was ready to be intimate with my partner again. During that time, we had sex only two times, each time I took the Plan B emergency contraceptive- I didn't use any other protection with it. After the emergency pills ran out and afraid of becoming pregnant again, our sex life pretty much came to a halt. About a week after taking the emergency pills, I saw a doctor and started using the nuvaring, which I liked a lot because I didn't have to worry about forgetting or missing pills. For the first week it was in, we didn't have any sex. And during that time I found a decent job I am happy with and am slowly starting to move on with my life.

Around the 2nd week I had the nuvaring in, I started feeling different. Since I already knew the feelings of being pregnant, I started freaking out. I eventually calmed down and thought maybe its just the effects of the ring. But then I started getting symptoms I had only ever gotten from when I was pregnant the first time... Acid reflux.. hunger pangs, nausea through out the day. I have never in my life ever had acid reflux, except for when I was pregnant, so when I had it again, I started to worry. I decided to wait to take a test until it was time to take the nuvaring out. It's been out for a few days now, going on 4 days... and still, no period. I haven't even had any breakthrough bleeding or spotting. I took a pregnancy test this morning, one of those accu clear pregnancy tests (with the blue dye) and when I peed, it changed instantly into two solid blue lines in each section of the test. Unsure of what that meant, I looked it up online and found that many other people got the same results and they WERE pregnant. In the instructions, it says in one window there needs to be a solid blue line and in the other window a blue positive sign. But after looking online, everyone else who took the same test I did, had the same results as me. So now I'm wondering... am I pregnant again?

Update:

**Update**

I took another test (it was the second stick from the box). After taking it, I noticed a very faint, super light line, making the one line in the window a positive. But it was extremely faint and I could only see it if I looked up close in bright light. Tomorrow I will be going to the store for another test and take it early Tuesday morning... Thanks for the comments so far.

    well two lines one in the control window and one in the result window is a negative. a plus sign would be positive. Since you were on birth control and got a negative result I would assume you are not pregnant . Your periods could be off due to stress or your body recovering from the miscarriage and the morning after pills you took.

    I would go get another brand of test, maybe a couple other brands, and take it again.
