I feel awful.

Started off with a blocked nose, soon became chills and sinus pain. Now a chesty cough has developed and I’m losing my voice. I feel weak and tired.
I woke up in a pool of sweat last night.
I walked 2 miles today and I was ok during, but when I got home I felt so exhausted and achy, my throat is now sore too and my nose is constantly running.
I feel spaced out and fuzzy headed.

I haven’t lost my sense of smell or taste and my oxygen levels are 98%, occasionally dropping to 97%.

I honestly thought I must have covid, but apparently not. Had my negative result this morning.

@FluffyTeddyBear

Wtf? You’re ill. You shouldn’t be going to work they unwell. Pre covid you wouldn’t have done!
All teachers go into work ill, always have done.

As we have to set cover work for our classes if we are ill (at least as time consuming and difficult as actually teaching the lessons), then unless we are actually vomiting, we go into work.

@ReturntoSpamfritters that’s aimed at those with positive lateral flow and negative PCR whereas the OP has all negative. I think I confused things a bit because I misunderstood - possibility because my son is testing positive on lateral flow and negative on PCRs currently so it is on my mind.

Yes OP all tests negative so prob not Covid but the link may be relevant info for other posters on this thread? As there is a fair bit of confusion about positive LFTs but negative PCRs at the moment.
