I’m day 6 and yet again another great big fat ‘T’ line this morning.

I’m curious how many test negative at this point or is it just to keep people optimistic!?

I'm day 10 and still positive, quite a thick red bar too.

@Angel2702 yeah that's right I'm in scotland so day 1 for us is either symptoms appear or you take the test.

Day 8 for me and still a red bar. No point testing until Sunday Evening. At least our contractor will return on Monday to continue the kitchen as we will all be out then.

I am day ….. 16 (I think, losing count now).

Guess what, just did a LFT as I was hoping to visit my dad in a care home tomorrow (no point driving for an hour, taking a LFT there, the wait for them to come and tell you if it’s negative and you can come from the car in has been up to two hours before so wanted to make sure I’m in the clear before I waste half the day just to be sent packing).

The bloody line is still there. still coming up right away before the control line! Still strong as ever! When will I ever test negative?!

Day 10 for me.

Day 6 here. Tested faint positive on Sunday. Very strong positive today. My symptoms seem to vary day to day. Today I have a hoarse throat and tiredness. Yesterday a banging head and joint pain - wobbly legs.
I now have blisters on my feet with I had when I had Covid June 2020.
Work said to stay off until negative or symptoms have gone. My temp seems to be boarder line 37.8/9

Day 9 for me today and finally testing negative although I'm now on steroids and antibiotics and my chest doesn't feel any better.

Headache is gone, the all over ache is gone but I've lost my voice, I have incredible fatigue and my chest is just so tight. Another two days of steroids and antibiotics to go, I hope it's all cleared by Monday as I'm going back to work then.

Day 10 for me today and I got a very very faint positive line. I think it’ll be gone tomorrow as it was an effort to see it!

Sadly DS1 has just tested positive, 14 weeks to the day he tested positive last time. Agh!!!

Zandathepanda · 22/01/2022 20:07

Friend tested negative on day 16 too

elliejjtiny · 22/01/2022 20:11

My ds3 tested negative on day 5. He was asymptomatic all the way through and his test line was faint on day 1 and 3 and barely visible on day 4.

2pinkginsplease · 24/01/2022 02:04

Day 9 and I'm still positive!

Dd on day 7 and has had a negative today.

drinkingwineoutofamug · 26/01/2022 17:10

Day 11. Finally have a negative. I have lost my voice and no energy . Hell will freeze over first before I swab again. Sure my nasal cavity will never be the same 😂

I got headaches start of week but had got new glasses at weekend so blamed them. Sore throat Wednesday, tested negative, tested Thursday am negative. Went to work and came home and tested strong positive 4pm. Tested today so only 2 days after strong positive and u would need a magnifying glass to see the line. I'm hoping it stays that way and definate negative on Monday and Tuesday
