Feint LFT line

Had a tight chest the last couple of days and a slight cough (asthmatic so not that unusual) but otherwise okay. Took an LFT before and seemed clear but at the end of the 30 mins I checked and there was a feint line.

I'll now book a PCR for tomorrow morning to be sure and isolate, but does this mean probably Covid? Or just unclear?

You aren't supposed to read them after the 15 /20 mins as the test can break down and make it invalid. Having said that I noticed mine had a faint line after 1 hour when I saw it in the bin and the next day got a very strong quick positive. So I would say another LFT tomorrow if you have one and while waiting for your PCR behave as if you have a positive result already.
