Hi all,
It's all really happened so fast and honestly have no idea where I got this.
My first thought would be my work as I work in retail.
I was away visiting my mother for new years. I had gone church the Sunday.
I had to stay extra day with my mother until Monday because she not been well. Just bad lower back, legs etc. I know now that's a sign of Covid.
Any went work on my Monday and I did feel okay until a colleague said my chest sounded heavy but I get like that sometimes anyway. I felt okay and Tuesday my legs were aching so bad in the morning nearly didn't go work but thought it was my fibromyalgia. I took painkillers and by afternoon was okay.
Wednesday evening I had a very bad cough. Thursday woke up feeling very congested and like I got a cold. So took lateral flow test positive. I sent my PCR off and it's positive.
Do you contact people yourselves if family or friends? Or do you do contact tracing?
It's strange because my son is okay and my hubby had booster today.
I know they both will need to keep testing.
I am just not sure what next.
Do I continue to do lateral flow test? I go back to work which I am on rota for next Sunday.
Do I need to let my son's school know? Or just wait until he gets symptoms or positive?
