Has anyone ever had long covid without having any of the big 3 symptoms?

I was really run down and exhausted over/ immediately after Christmas and have been feeling like crap for most of January. I never had any of the big 3 symptoms so never had a test.

I looked up the symptoms of long covid and I have 11 out of the 14 symptoms. My main and by far worst symptom in fatigue.
I'm currently signed of work with depression however previously when I have suffered with depression long walks and runs have really helped now I feel like collapsing in tears after doing a quater of what I could do before Christmas.
I'm wondering if this is actually long covid rather then depression. Although one of the symptoms of long covid is depression / anxiety so may all be connected.

I had what I thought was a cold. Didn't think much of it, but found it was COVID when I did a lateral flow test at work.

I have had a fever or loss of taste/smell at any point. My worst symptom throughout was fatigue, which remains 4 weeks on. Could you ask your GP for an antibody test?
