Positive - none of the “big 3” symptoms

[ChelseaCat]

Morning all

Got my positive result this morning after being invited for a test after logging feeling a bit off colour on the Zoe app.

My symptoms are: feeling shivery (no fever), pins and needles sensation on my skin (especially on my back) and aches joints.

Almost didn’t bother with the test but glad I did now. 9 days of isolation await!

Oh joy!

This is exactly how I felt in November - didn’t get a test as none of my symptoms were listed on website. Then a friend tested positive with exact same results (ds’s in same class at school) so I’m sure I had it.

The thing I remember is the weird backache/headache - I get lots of headaches but this one wasn’t like any I’d had before and my back was killing me! Also uncontrollably shivering for 25 hours. I wish I’d got a test now.

*24 hours!

I tested positive after a routine test at work. Had no symptoms, didn't get ill and neither did any of my family. Such a strange virus or I never actually had it? (tested negative in an NHS test 3 days later).
