Question HCG levels low- Is it a viable pregnancy?

My fertility doctor says my pregnancy is 100% not normal based on hcg beta tests and suggests I stop taking progesterone (100 mg twice daily). I am 42 years old. I am 5 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Do you consider based on the numbers below that the pregnancy is not viable? Should I continue taking the progesterone? As of now, I am not bleeding or cramping.
-4 weeks and 1 day at 163
-4 weeks and 3 days at 310
-4 weeks and 5 days at 482
-5 weeks and 1 day at 831
-5 weeks and 4 days at 887 (today)

**UPDATE*** I wanted to update this and let you know that three days later, I went for a second ultrasound and blood work from another doctor. They still found an empty sac and the HCG rose to 1060, no viable pregnancy.
