I tested positive today and haven't seen any threads listing symptoms in order that they appear so thought this might be helpful if anyone else wants to share:

Day 1 - felt a bit weird all day, couldn't put my finger on why but I just felt 'off'.

Day 2 - woke up in early hours with a killer headache. Cough started around 9am checked temp which was 38.2 and felt shivery and cold. Slept from 3pm - 7pm. Cough seemed to be getting worse but temp subsided.

Day 3 (today) woke up with temp but subsided after taking paracetamol and not returned yet. Covid test at 9am. Cough easing a bit but still feel very fatigued. Positive result 11pm

Will keep updating as it progresses (though I'm hoping it doesn't get much worse)

Thank you, this is really useful. I hope you feel better soon.

Day 4 (AM) - woke up with slight headache and feeling groggy. Had paracetamol and headache now gone. Still coughing a bit but not loads, no temp. Feel well enough to put some washing on and do a few odd things but still fatigued.

Day 4 (PM) - feel worse this evening. Have no energy. Even going to the loo seems to wipe me out. Headache has moved to behind the eyes so every time I move my eyes it hurts. Taken more paracetamol so hopefully that will ease a bit soon. Slept for a couple of hours this afternoon and now lay on sofa waiting for DH to make dinner ( still have an appetite and can still taste and smell which is good )
