Negative PCR yesterday but now change to taste

[FlatteredFool]

Ds had his negative result yesterday from a PCR taken on Tuesday. Today he is saying everything tastes weird. He has a bit of a cough and a bit of a sore throat. No fever. What happens in this situation? Retest? Just continue to isolate? Dd complained yesterday that things didn't taste nice. Her year group is isolating anyways we aren't out potentially infecting anyone. We have don't lots of isolations but have been er had new symptoms after a negative test. Does anyone have any experience of this?

You could have possibly tested too early and you can book another if you want to, just to know.

I would test again.

Same happened with my daughter ,her boyfriend got it so we assumed she would too ,she had 3 negative lateral flows and was isolating and a negative pcr ,a couple of days later she had a positive lateral flow and then a positive pcr ,by then she was coughing and had lost her taste and smell ,the isolation period went from her first day of symptoms, we are both free tommorrow, I’m double jabbed and have managed not to get ,she has been poorly with it , more than I thought for her age she’s 17 ,

We have done another test, thank you. Ds was not happy bless him. He is braver than his much older sister though!
