Can you see a line?

[fostle]

Can anyone see a line?

Yes, but vvv faint. I would do another one this evening as a double check.

No. If you think you can, isolate and book a pcr.

I don't think they are like pregnancy tests. If the test is inconclusive then take another but if it's a barely visible line I'd probably assume negative.

I can’t

I can see a very faint line. I’d test again in the evening or tomorrow morning.

Yeah I can. But I'd do another!

Very, very feint. Yes.

Yes, definitely

There’s no need to repeat of you can see any sort of line. If you can see a line, book a pcr (if you can!).

nearest PCR is over 80 miles away and as it's a bank holiday there is no postal delivery or collections until Tuesday morning.

I will keep trying for a PCR and isolate in the mean time.

Have you done another LFT?

the postal ones are still being delivered and the priority postboxes are still being emptied.

I can see a line, it's just faint.

@friedeggandsauce

Have you done another LFT?

Not yet, it's my son who has ASD test. Getting him to agree to a test takes time and coaxing.

There’s no need for another lft, especially if you’re planning to get a pcr.

Ah, thank you. I didn't know about priority boxes as all other PCRs we have done have been at the test centre down the road.

Postal tests available now

Are all priority postboxes being collected? When I go on the website ours says no collection today and Sunday collection times for the next 3 days. We don’t usually have a Sunday collection so I had assumed no collection at all until Wednesday?

DS2 had very faint line yesterday and 3 negative tests. Today has strong positive line and all the symptoms.
I managed to get walk in PCR's 10 miles away for 3 of them by refreshing the page yesterday.

I see a very faint line. I've had lots of these where the indent line seems quite grey and prominent but subsequent tests and PCRs have all been firm negatives. It's very annoying. Test again this evening and if you're still unsure, book a PCR.

I can. Get PCR don't muck around doing another LFT

Managed to get a PCR drive in for 8am tomorrow.

Thanks all, it's the not knowing for sure that's most annoying.

This is wrong. It's the same as a pregnancy test where a line is a line (on the U.K. tests at least).
