Positive lft, negative pcr then positive lft?

Mild cold symptoms - positive lft Friday night.

Pcr Saturday morning - results back this morning negative.

Another lft done this morning - positive again.

Any ideas which is more likely to be correct? Have booked another pcr.

If actually positive - probable exposure would have been at a wedding last Saturday night.

Thanks

To add - all other household members have tested negative (lft and pcr).

The 2x positive lfts were from different boxes so I don't think just a dodgy box.

Yeah repeat. We tested our girls wed
Night and one lft was positive and other negative- both girls tested positive on next PCR. Sounds like if you have it it’s mild. My dc have classic symptoms. Even if only for your peace of mind that you’ve had a bout of it to give your immune system a boost. You would have to self islolate for 10’days.

Update in case anyone comes across this later - second pcr positive. It seems from research we did yesterday false negatives with pcrs much more likely than false positives with lfts.
