That was the only symptom my dh had. Tested positive on pcr.

I had this last week. Lasted 5 days. Only symptom and none of my LFT were positive.

Lots of people have had same and all had negative Pcrs or LFT. We decided we had something we'd all given each other - clearly not covid though!

My partner had a migraine on the day he tested positive. He gets migraines anyway but this was more severe than usual, accompanied with nose bleeds and vomiting & chills. He wouldn't have usually tested with a migraine as they are so usual for him but with the symptoms and there had been a few cases at his work and he was regularly testing.

Yes. And low back pain.

@Crapslattern

Yes. And low back pain.
I had low back pain too!

Many of us did but still didn't ever test positive. It's really odd!

Yes. I tested negative in the morning then this headache and weird little cough started. I then tested positive that evening

Me and lower back pain and feeling cold all the time. Negative LFTs for first two days finally got positive LFT on day 3 when I was feeling heaps better.

Headache was mine and OHs first symptom, started for me about 24hrs before my positive LFT closely followed by a sore throat and runny nose. For me it was more front behind eyes, sinuses and forehead. I've now has that headache for 13 days. Painkillers don't help Sad

I had covid last year so not omnicron - but first symptom was a headache and I had one pretty much constantly for two weeks, amongst other symptoms, and then on off for a couple weeks afterwards.

Yes and back ache

These were my exact symptoms as well - only I tested postive on an LFT on the first day of symptoms.

Headache is now the second most reported symptom on the Zoe Covid/Kings College study (after runny nose) and above fatigue
