Dp tested positive yesterday after symptoms started weds. My symptoms started thurs, so took a test Friday. Mine was negative.

We both have a slight cough, sore throat, headache, general fatigue, slight temp. He lost his taste and smell last night. I can still taste and smell.

Would it be worth testing again tomorrow/Monday? I'm not convinced I'm a true negative.

Can you call T&T and tell them about your contacts?
I would re-test.
I bet you are a false negative because you are a few days behind your partner in the infection.

In your shoes I would test again.
Going off of threads on here, some people didn't hear from T&T until 9 days after their partner got a positive so they may contact you still. Has your partner heard from T&T yet? Hopefully the government are using the lockdown period to sort out T&T, thats the only way to sort this mess.
I completely understand your stress, my son had to isolate due to his teacher testing positive and I couldn't leave him alone so had to isolate with him leaving me with 2 weeks unpaid leave.
Some people on here are fortunate enough to not consider the financial implications.
