I woke up with a really sore throat and feeling a bit tired. Throughout the day felt more and more fatigued, climbing the stairs is quite an effort. Feel very hot but then the temperature here is 28. Went to sleep this afternoon for about 4 hours as just felt so exhausted. Does it sound like I've got it?

could be. Take your temperature and if it's up book a test.

Donenow22 · 12/08/2020 18:31

I haven't got a thermometer unfortunately

then if you feel hot I would jist book a test anyway.

Certainly seen exhaustion/sleeping loads mentioned as a symptom. You can order a test to come to your home as an alternative to having to go out. Hopefully you (and household) are able to self isolate in the meantime?

I never had a temp at all, just started with a headache that went away, I was shattered and going up stairs was more like a mountain. Then the cough. Go online and order a home test anyway. Better to know.

I had CV and didn't have a temperature either. I'd get a test if I was you. Hope you feel better soon.

Book a test. I had very similar symptoms Plus cough and my test was negative, but others with similar symptoms Have had tested positive.

I didn't have a temp until day 10. But was definitely feeling like mountain climbing for the period before that!

I've booked a test for tomorrow. Fingers crossed it's negative.

Make sure to drink lots of water tonight and in the morning, so you don't go to the test dehydrated. If you are it's had to get a good sample.
