Dh started feeling ill on Monday, he went for a test which came back void on Wednesday morning. He got another test on Wednesday which came back positive very late Thursday. I started feeling ill on Wednesday, so I went with him for his second test and I also got my results but my PCR was negative. I did a lateral flow Wednesday that was positive and another one on Thursday that was positive. I have all the same symptoms as dh, an awful painful deep cough, cold symptoms and no smell at all. I went for another PCR Thursday which came back yesterday and again it was negative. I did another lateral flow yesterday that was a very faint positive and another today which was negative. According to the PCRs I've never had covid, but I can't imagine that I haven't given the proximity to dh and sharing the same symptoms. It just means I never got contacted by track or trace and given any isolation dates.
It's ruined our Christmas, when we had lots planned with family and I'm very sad about it but it's got to be done. Dh will be free for new year, AIBU to isolate until then and then do the same as him, I mean I can't really do more than I've done? Technically I don't have to isolate now, but that seems wrong as I did have the symptoms. I'm feeling very conflicted and confused why I've not tested positive.
