[Jenhahaton9]

Interested to hear & then how did it progreee ?

Really sore, scratchy throat. Progressed into an awful cold; snotty nose and sneezing, headache, absolutely exhausted, felt terrible for about a week then eased off.

Scratchy throat. Didn't get much else but I was so tired.

Headache and tiredness followed by sore throat. Then cold symptoms (runny nose and sneezing, minimal coughing) headache passed after after a few days but the sore throat, cold symptoms and tiredness have persisted. Symptoms started four days before I tested positive (including PCR on day 2)

Bit of a tickly throat and a thick head - to be honest that was about as bad as it got. Just felt like I was going to go down with something but never did. Possibly a bit tired. I got negative LFT on day 7.

Exactly the same as @MoonlightFancy. I’m on day 7 and just starting to feel better.

Sore throat. Then general cold symptoms and a tickly cough. A very bad cold.

Pounding head and start of a sore throat

Scratchy throat and general cold symptoms. My kids had temperatures but we al tested negative throughout the week until the weekend. By then I’d got an ear infection, cold symptoms, bad headache and I started coughing the day before the positive tests. Oldest kid was fine after the temp but the baby had and still has a bad cough.

Sore throat, stuffed up nose, aches, head ache, coughing. Just like a bad cold really. Felt much better by day 6. Completely better by day 9.

Threw up

Burning sensation up my nose. Then a slight headache and feeling tired.

Banging headache that kept me awake all night.

Progressed to tight chest, laboured breathing, gurgling chest/productive cough, razor blade throat and all over aches, temp and horrible fatigue. Ended up going to hospital. Lasted about a week. On the mend now though.

So far, scratchy throat since Friday and a bit of a runny nose. Tested positive, this morning and my fitbit reported an increase in skin temperature. I've felt better, but felt a lot worse. So far...

Sudden Abdominal pain and disappearance of any appetite at all.
Then scratchy throat

Nothing after a runny nose for 24 hours.

Fatigue

Sore throat and fatigue. Progressed to a beyond heavy cold for five days, raging temperature, cough, sneezing, blocked and runny nose (actually slept with a tissue up my nose one night because it was running so bad), insomnia, more fatigue, severe sinus pain for two days, earache, then feeling a bit more human and the following day getting my first negative. Now I'm left with this awful cough and wheezing and I'm tired.

I had an iffy throat (which isn't uncommon for me, but negative LFT) - now realise this was day 0.

Day 1 - warm at work (everyone else saying the same so I ignored) and realised I was hot and tired walking home. Developed headache and felt a bit sick in evening. LFTs negative am and pm

Day 2 - had an awful night, bad head, feeling a bit sick and absolutely no sleep. LFTS negative am and pm

Day 3 - LFT positive. Headache went.

Days 4-6 , mixture of lethargy, insomnia, tiredness, sore cough, a pathetic cough. I've slept reasonably well the last couple of nights and feel more alert though.

DH -

Day 0 - scratchy throat LFT negative.

Day 1 - went to work, felt like he had a cold coming LFT negative

Day 2 - LFT positive. He came up to tell me (gets up earlier) and looked awful, red eyes, constantly sneezing and coughing for the next few days.

Day 6 - developed very sore throat and ulcers.

Had had insomnia throughout. He says he still feel bad, but has a touch of cabin fever (whereas I have no desire to go out at all).

sorry, I just realised you only ask first symptom!

Feeling tired to my bones one afternoon. That night had an awful sleep and felt a bit fluey so when I tested in the morning I knew it would be positive. Felt unwell for about 3 days and then just tired. Hope you are ok

Nausea and vomiting

Backache first then later in the day felt very tired. Woke the next day feeling a bit unwell and wasn't at all surprised when tested positive.
Didn't feel particularly ill for all of first week, cold symptoms including sore throat and cough developed about 7-8 days. Tested positive until day 9 and still have sore throat and cough a week later

I haven't had it but DH symptoms were - Day 1/2 intermittent mild cough, day 3 stuffy nose, sneezed a few times. Day 4 onwards, over it!

The second line. That was it really. If I thought really hard I could maybe say I had a very slight scratchy throat for a couple i hours the night before. But nothing more than that.
