Pill Issue

[KJK2]

On New Years, I had a little too much to drink and ended up puking my pill 4.5 almost 5 hours after taking it (I took it on an empty stomach if that makes a difference). My pill packet says count as a missed pill if vommitted within 3-4 hours. I decided I would back up for the next 7 days with condoms, however after taking 6 pills the condom broke. I took Plan B within 60 hours, even though a nurse said she thinks I would be fine without taking it. I also missed a pill the week before but made it up the next day.

1) You say the pill is normally absorbed within 2-3 hours. Would the pill have been considered missed or do you feel it would have been absorbed?

2) I took two tests today 7 days after the risk, which is when I was suppose to get my period and both were negative. Would these be considered correct? Would a test the day after be correct either?

3) Would a test 10 days after the risk be accurate even if I do not receive my period?
