Is there anyone on here who knows of anyone who tested positive for covid with sneezing, runny nose/congestion and fatigue? This is what my DD18 has. She has been in bed all day sleeping on and off but none of the 3 main symptoms yet..

Yes! Started with sneezing and had very bad fatigue :(

Can I ask if anybody has tested positive without the three main symptoms but who did display other symptoms such as lethargy, constant headache etc? Thank you.

I had a light cold for about 5 days before testing positive. But the main symptoms then came along

Confusedcatlady1 · 29/11/2020 10:45

Thankyou @Foxinsocks1. Can I ask what prompted you to go for a test with your original symptoms? I hope you are on the mend now.

I didn’t go until I had one of the main symptoms.

These are the same symptoms I’m currently having as is DH. We took covid test yesterday so will let you know the outcome later

Yes! I had a head cold, my DH had similar with fatigue. We had none of the 3 symptoms! Decided to get DH tested as just not like him to be so tired. I thought I might as well get tested too & we both came back +ve!
I’ve had long conversations with officials over the whole 3 symptoms we’re advertising & fact I had to lie to get tested! I had even phoned 111 & told no need to test at all!

Another waiting on results for these symptoms. Also nauseous and sore throat.
I’m testing as I’m a teacher and isolating after 4 cases in my class over the last week.

DS19 thought he had a cold at uni. The flat had been told to isolate due to a close contact. Several of his flat mates had similar symptoms so thought they ought to test. 3 came back positive. Only developed a very slight cough and a change in smell several days later.

Thank you all for replying. I am feeling rough but don't want to waste a test because I don't have the three main symptoms but I'm in a dilemma because I'd hate the thought of having it and unwittingly spreading it.

My dp sneezing and productive cough

Rainbowgravy · 29/11/2020 14:06

Thank you for your replies. We still haven't moved on regarding symptoms so I'm hoping it's just a normal cold. She is in 6th form so I might keep her if again tomorrow to make sure she is recovering in the usual way and not developing any new symptoms.
