Line eyes?

I can never see the line on these threads. If that were my test it would have gone in the bin. Surely we're not supposed to squint, hold them up to the light or take pictures and put filters on them in order to see a line??

Exactly @Leaveitonthefloordrobe it's bizarre.

How are you feeling OP?

@PoloPrincess

How are you feeling OP?
My throat is still sore but today’s LFT was negative so I must have had line eyes!

Glad you're negative... I really couldn't see a line. In my experience LFT positives are clear and unambiguous. I once got a PCR after I thought I spotted the faintest of line - my DD was positive at the time so was expecting it - but PCR was negative.

Yes, people over-interpret the guidance. A faint line means just that - not a line that requires specialist optical equipment to discern.

Lol at putting filters on Instagram to see a line ...just why?..I don't get it..if you can't see a line by just looking at it normally then it's negative.

Some people just seem determined to be positive..not sure why

musicalfrog · 27/12/2021 23:43

Too much staring at pregnancy tests in the past maybe?

Or just determined to protect others in my case thanks

The camera is hard to pick up a line unless you shine a bright torch on it and then photo it.

Mine was very faint to start with and then got darker later on. Keep testing.

How much later on...

I’ve just tested , I keep coming over all sweaty, throat isn’t sore but I have a headache, I think I can see a line , can anyone else see one ?

Thanks @pho03 I’ll test again tomorrow.

Vapeyvapevape · 28/12/2021 01:48

The sweats keep coming in waves , I don’t feel shivery though like I have done previously with flu / bad cold .

123feraverto · 28/12/2021 01:51

My LFT were all negative
I had two positive PCRs

I still don't see one. That would be negative in our house.
Leaveitonthefloordrobe · 28/12/2021 12:42

But, with the symptoms you've described, you probably should take a PCR anyway.

Ijustneedtosleep21 · 28/12/2021 12:48

I see a line and with your symptoms you need a PCR

Vapeyvapevape · 28/12/2021 13:13

I’ve booked a pcr for this afternoon.

Dd had a very faint line like this and then tested positive on a PCR.
