So i had. Pcr sun and came back positive ( had it a ds had positive lft and pcr on fri) as as work with vulnerable people i had pcr has i had slight runny nose sat
Anyway positive pcr but all my LFT have been negative including today , day 4
Tomorrow i can take a lft and if negative and again the next day i can come out of isolation
But i havs never had a positive LFT
Tested every day since thurs last week
Symptom wise just felt a little tired and slight fuzzy head but nothing too bad and I think sitting upstairs in one room working , eating , sleeping isn't helping

If you work with vulnerable people, it may be best to do the full 10 days isolation from them, but if LFT are negative days 5 & 6, then you can come out of isolation.

Explain the situation to your work and let them decide.

Have you done a nose/throat lft or just nose ones? I was getting negs on nose ones (was testing daily as close contact) but only got a positive on a nose/throat one.

KatherineofGaunt Same here! Only testing positive on nose and throat ones. No symptoms only testing because of close contact
