Just that really. Can you see a faint line?

Mmm, not really but I see what you mean. I wouldn't say this is positive though. Do another tomorrow maybe to make sure

Dementedswan · 13/07/2021 15:01

Yes I see it, book a pcr to check.

mrsdolittle · 13/07/2021 15:02

I can see it too. Best book PCR

x2boys · 13/07/2021 15:02

Yes I see it too 😢

simbobs · 13/07/2021 15:03

Did you decide to test because you had been in contact with a positive case? DS's friend did this and had a faint line. He is now quite poorly with the virus and caused his whole household to have to isolate. If you think you are at risk book a pcr straight away.

Saidtoomuch · 13/07/2021 15:05

Only just, but its there.

coffeepleeease · 13/07/2021 15:10

Should have said, PCR is booked. Sent it to my family (mum, sisters) and they can't see it, thought I was going mad!

I can see it.

WarriorN · 13/07/2021 15:34

Sorry!

Pcr to confirm.

Sexnotgender · 13/07/2021 15:34

I see it.

This makes a change from trying to spot lines on pregnancy tests😂

Congratulations you're pregnant got covid!

anastasiakrupnik · 13/07/2021 15:49

Mine looked like that. PCR was negative, which is weird too, but meant I was liberated.

StrangeAddiction · 13/07/2021 15:51

I can see it.

Can you shine your phone torch through the back of the test and see if it shows up clearer that way?

Luckymummytoone · 13/07/2021 15:57

Yep I can see it! I’ve had a few like this , although maybe a little fainter but negative PCR 🤔 x x

WarriorN · 13/07/2021 16:16

A friend said her middle school had had a number of false positives so definitely get a pcr

anastasiakrupnik · 13/07/2021 16:19

After hearing orange juice could activate them, I wonder if mine was positve due to multitasking, eg I'd do a quick LFT whilst
making dinnerConfused

BashandWhizz · 13/07/2021 17:51

I can see it. DH has just had a similar result.

curlyLJ · 13/07/2021 17:56

I honestly can't see anything and I would consider that negative.

I would just do another one in the morning.

Verite1 · 13/07/2021 18:07

I can’t see anything at all.

WarriorN · 13/07/2021 18:17

School primary staff were told to not eat for 30 mins before tests.

I do wonder the impact of that on false negatives.

WarriorN · 13/07/2021 18:17

*false positives!

pilingup · 13/07/2021 18:17

Nope

BlackeyedSusan · 13/07/2021 18:18

yeah, very faint, sorry.

you never know these days if positive is an often good news pregnancy test or an oh fuck covid test.
