What do you count as a fever for covid testing purposes?

[Feelingconfusedtonight]

As the title states what temp and/or symptoms do you use to know if you should be tested. Thanks

I’ve been tested. Whole household at home so, so far so good. Just hoping the results come through quickly.

Hope it’s a negative and comes back ASAP

The official advice is feeling warm rather than a number so get tested .

I'm sorry he doesn't seem to consider your grandmother
Does he go out and about? You could have caught it from him.
I have spoken to lots of positive cases as part of my job, and a lot of them have said a main symptom is fatigue verging on exhaustion. I hope you feel better soon whatever it is!

I’ve tested negative thank goodness, so am able to care for DGM.
We all self isolated until the results came back. A bit concerned about what’s been brought to the forefront by DH’s behaviour since I raised the possibility of needing to be tested. Never even bothered to ask me how I was yesterday.

I had the opposite, I couldn't get warm and was shivering. I felt cold to my bones.

A fever does that to you.

I was cold too-and the thermometer registered below normal temperature, although I forgot what.

I'm glad you were negative and still able to see your grandmother

@Heartofglass12345 thank you. I’m relieved to be able to be there for her.
