How long were you testing positive for?

I took the test on Friday and it was a bold positive, though I'd been feeling under the weather for a couple of days already. I'm still coughing hard, so it seems a bit pointless testing again yet. How many days from your first test did you come back negative?

Following because I'm currently on day 3. I feel so bad as my whole family was meant to be coming over for Xmas day and I feel like I've ruined it! 😓
Apparently once your temperature is down to normal you are less likely to pass it on though so coughing may have nothing to do with it.

currently still testing positive on day 6 after first positive test (which was Thur last week)

I was feeling ill/coldy/fluey for a full week before then though! So I'm not sure if I had a cold first and then as immune system was done, caught covid on top.

Mainly just feeling exhausted and wanting to sleep all the time now but taste and smell still different and bit snotty etc still so I'm not surprised i'm still positive :(

At least I'm past the recommended 5 days of isolation though.. so should be ok to mix at xmas (with family members fully aware and ok for me to do so)

I'm on two full weeks today and it's down to a very faint line today, almost invisible.

Still very thick and dark two days ago though.

I tested negative on day 6. Fingers crossed you do too
