Just temperature and fatigue?

My DS age 8 had a temperature of 38.5 for 24 hours on Friday and has been exhausted with a headache, and grumpy since. Just wondered if anyone else or their DC had had anything similar with covid? It's weird because he has had no other typical symptoms of a cold such as cough, runny nose or sore throat.

I had this a few weeks ago, not covid. Also had crampy upper stomach pains

My DS has had this for a couple of days and is consistently testing negative, but I've just tested positive. So far my only symptoms are a sore throat and snotty which I'd put down to hay fever and fatigue.

Not dcs but myself, I’ve been extremely exhausted since Thursday so much so I had to go back to bed a couple of times, have had a minor scratchy throat plus headache. Last night temperature started and I’m feeling like I’ve been battered. Dh tested positive on Friday. He’s had full blown cold/flu symptoms and been in bed as he’s felt so awful. I only tested positive this morning.

Yes my DC pretty much only had a temp and minor headache. Never had any classic cold symptoms at all. Tested positive eventually when almost recovered! Hope your DS is better soon.
