Help! I've got Covid and I'm stuck in a hotel

I travelled to Plymouth for Christmas and did all the right stuff. I'm double jabbed, booster booked for early Jan and have been doing lateral flow tests every day to stay safe and protect others.

This morning, I woke up coughing, sneezing and with chest pains and my LF is positive.

I'm stuck in a hotel with no way of getting home! I live in Bournemouth and my fiance (who was going to meet me Christmas Eve) has also tested positive.

Does anyone have any bright ideas or am I stuck in a hotel room for ten days? I'm devastated. I just want to go home :(

At least he came to get you so that's good whilst he had a moment of feeling up to driving

Good to hear he came to get you and you are improving

So glad to hear you're feeling a bit better and he was able to come and get you in the end!

JustLikeaJingleBell in England if you test negative on day 6 and 7 you can come out of self isolation.

Pleased you’re starting to recover OP - you and your DF sound like a great team Smile

Her options are limited not every one can stay in a hotel for 10 days ,

What is? You seem to be arguing with yourself.

@medusawashere

Fiance ended up feeling ropey on day one but much much better after that. I've had much worse symptoms and he's been cooking, cleaning, cuddling and generally being the lovebug I'm marrying him for.

Isolating over Christmas sucks but it's the right thing to do until we're both testing negative.
