Morning, so although I do get migraines, they usually don't last longer 2 days. Day 4 headache back. Also so fatigued and today just want doze off constantly which not like me. Did lft just in case as numbers v high in our area. I not had covid that I'm aware of (in fact anti body test I had few months ago suggested I hadn't.). But 15 dd came home yesterday with headache also (unusual to have bad one) and by 6pm she fell asleep on sofa which v not like her. Took to bed and slept through. Tested neg lft. I know pollen is v high so that not impossibility but also wondering if this the start of this new strain?? Anyone started like this.?

Had a headache for a couple of days, unusual for me. Sore throat on third day and positive test.

I feel very off this morning - utterly shattered, slightly queasy and starting a headache.

I've just tested negative though.

When I had covid before, I felt off for about 48 hours before positive test, so might test again tomorrow

That's how it started for me but I tested positive immediately

I had a terrible headache on a Thursday, felt awful but didn't test positive until the Sunday. Son had a headache Thursday as well amongst other things and tested positive the following day.

Thanks for sharing. My headache eased during day so I haven't retested (partner thinks I over worry!!). Daughter better today too. Might test in morning esp if have headache again.

So I haven't tested positive and today first day headache free. So thinking probably hay fever related - although not usually inflicted with so many headaches for so many days.

Are there still a lot of people who have presenting symptoms, have family members with positive covid, who test negative throughout?

Interestingly one dd had covid in Feb and dh, sister and me didn't get it. Then other dd got it in April - again the other 3 of us ok. But both dh & I have felt at least once we probably had it. It was driving me mad not really knowing if I had had covid or not paid for anti-body test in May, and it suggested I haven't! But also my anti-bodies after x3 vacc indicated antibodies remained high.

My overall health not great so sometimes it is hard to know whats what re symptoms.
