Nuvaring/planb

I am on the nuvaring birth control (i do 4 weeks with nuvaring in (28 day) - 1 week out (7day)).

the nuvaring was still in and we had an accident where the condom broke on Nov 11 night.
I didn't think much of it...

I am due for my period - so I took the nuvaring out on Nov 13 (as I was supposed to as it had been 4 weeks).
Then on Nov 15, my nipples started feeling tingly...
So I started getting worried.

I took a plan b on No 15 (approx 90 hours after incident)....

So - given the fact that
a. i had birth control in (nuvaring)
b. it was days before my period was supposed to start (and 26 days in my 28 day cycle with nuvaring IN)
c. i have taken plan b just in case...

So, while my period was supposed to start today - I know it won't since I took plan b yesterday.
I assume my chances of being pregnant are relatively small...

But really - I would be more comfortable taking a pregnancy test. I am not entirely sure when the soonest I can?

The general rule is to do one, after you are over 7 days late.

The NIH lists the typical symptoms of pregnancy as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, sore breasts, skipped menstrual cycles, and sudden weight gain.

Have you started, yet?
