positive lateral flow a week after cold symptoms

I started with a sneezy blocked nose a week ago. I have been testing every day as I have had to go to a conference and also went to a black tie evening do for work last night.

A colleague who was at the same event last night tested positive this morning and I have felt tired all day (but was away overnight in the week and long work days also very late to bed last night). Due to go to a party tonight so I have tested and it came up positive almost immediately. I feel so awful as I've been out in really busy places with my cold and I have presumably been infectious despite testing negative. How long am I likely to be positive for?
To date I only have a very snotty nose and feel a little tired

I had symptoms 4 days before testing positive last Sunday. I am still testing positive today on day 9, although I’m free to leave isolation tomorrow.
