Has this happened to anyone else?

DD tested positive on Tuesday. I tested the same time as had similar symptoms, headache, shivers etc. My PCR negative.

Two days of feeling absolutely terrible, headache, chest tightness and flu symptoms. I spent the two days in bed with DD as assumed I had covid.

I’ve had subsequent PCRs and LFTs - all negative

DH tested positive yesterday, exactly the same symptoms as me.

I am still LFT negative.

Has anyone had obvious symptoms, been surrounded by positive people but tested negative?

Yes two negative PCRs when DH tested positive, in fact my symptoms were worse and prolonged. Eventually tested positive on LFTs and lost smell and taste after a week, thankfully I was already isolating as I knew I had it. PCRs are not 100% accurate.

Thanks for replying. Yes I’ve isolated anyhow due to being convinced that I’ve had it.
Im on day 6 and now feel so tired. On day 2-3 I felt utterly dreadful, so headachy and tight chested
