Are you sure your not positive?
I have done 5 flow flex lateral flows on my DS which were clear as day two lines and came up really quickly. Then today I wanted to see how it was progressing towards our day 5/6 release and only had the 'old style ones' until we had some more flow flex delivered this afternoon. Well there was no second line what so ever. It was crazy, so I did another flow flex one when the new box arrived and bam clear positive. He's completely asymptomatic too.
So I do not believe that the flow flex tests can be that wrong or throw up a false positive for that many tests that I did. I am more inclined to think the other ones aren't as sensitive to pick it up as quick.

I've been having positives on flowflex since October followed up with PCRs and never had a positive. Flowflex just don't like me for some strange reason. Every other brand I've always been negative

I found flowflex picked it up earlier in all our family than the other tests, but no false positives

I get faint positives with the flowflex too when ever I use them. If it got darker I'd be sure it was positive but always followed by negative PCRs for me.
