Anybody had covid symptoms return a few days later?

[CarerKate]

I'm on day 8 of positive testing for covid. Had sore throat, body aches, high temperature, runny nose and fatigue for about 5 days. I didn't test positive until 3 days after symptoms started. So I'm on day 8 of actually testing positive but day 11 of starting with symptoms. Anyway for the past few days I've been absolutely fine. Can't return to work until I'm negative due to the nature of my work.
Today I've started with sore throat again, my temp is 37.9 so whilst not super high is still classed as high (it was 38.4 at highest when I had symptoms). I also feel extremely exhausted again.

I'm desperate to return to work as I don't get sick pay (even though I caught covid from doing my job!)

So has anybody else developed symptoms again a few days after they went, whilst still testing positive?

Why are you not entitled to stat sick pay?

I felt slightly unwell for a few days before testing positive, was vomiting the day before I tested positive and spent the following two days pretty much asleep. I was coughing, sneezing had a fever the works and spent a week in bed. Going from lying down to sitting up left me struggling for breath for a good ten minutes or so.

I tested negative on day 11 from the original test but am still coughing and sneezing. I had three 20 minute walks yesterday and today my legs hurt, breathing is tricky again and I'm still coughing and sneezing. I made it downstairs but that was about it.
I can't sleep and just feel unwell. It's shit. Day 13 now.

Initially my symptoms were mild but a month in and I’m now suffering with fatigue and a chest infection . When will it end?

There are so many other bugs going round as well as Covid, but if you have been inside and poorly with Covid for a couple of weeks seems more likely to be vulnerable for the cold and sickness bugs circulating

Also if work needs you to test and be safe to get paid then fair enough, but if you are not allowed to work and no sick pay then just stop testing

I found covid very weird. I had a sore throat for days 1-2 then days 3-5 were blocked sinuses, days 6-8 were dizziness and then I had diarrhoea!

I have to show them picture of my tests. I work in a care setting so they are really careful.

I don't get SSP as I work part time and get a little UC each month.

How can you not get sick pay though. No one can afford to be off without sick pay but if you aren't allowed in sue to sickness surely you should be entitled to pay

I'm on a zero hours contract. My job involves talking, I can't talk without coughing.
No work no pay.
