Just that really.

Started feeling rubbish Friday night, sore throat, stuffy head, not bunged up but feeling flushed and slept for hours and hours.

Bee very fatigued and Sunday afternoon lost all my sense if smell.

Can't smell anything, coffee etc.
It's not a blocked nose as I can breathe fine.

But test just came back as negative?

What are the chances it's a false result?
Luckily I don't work and then kids are off so I'm planning on staying home for another few days, I feel terrible.

Anyone else had this?

As an aside my sister was admitted and put on oxygen about 4 months ago, it took 3 tests yo show a positive on her despite Dr's seeing it was covid from her chest x-ray.

Very odd.

I read on another thread that the Delta variant is sometimes not picked up on PCR tests.....not sure whether there's any truth in this?
