I’ve woke up with a really bad sore throat. I had a cough for about two weeks and it’s been gone now for about five days.
I was a bit bunged up with mucus this morning so I think I’m going to get a cough again soon.
The official guidelines is cough and fever so because I have neither I’m okay to go to work until these symptoms appear aren’t I?

I would probably err on the side of caution to be honest. Although what do you do? Any chance to do some bits from home?

Sorry I only just saw this, I ended up coming in but I’m going to see if I start coughing tomorrow morning and then I’ll take the week off if needs be.
I work in a call centre and we’ve already had confirmation that there’ll be no working from home unfortunately.
