Flowflex - false positive?

[FlossyRossy]

Has anyone else had a very faint line on the flowflex brand for days?

I’ve just come back from travelling in crowded airports and hotels and have had some minor symptoms. However, this could be something else. I’m now 8 days on and still showing up a very very faint positive. On another brand I’m negative. Im
just wondering if this could be a mistake and I’m getting false positives? I would expect to be negative by now?

thanks in advance!

If you have symptoms and are testing positive, it's a positive. Hope you feel ok

Lots of threads here back along about Flow Flex. Always got a faint positive over a two year period but negative PCRs (when we could get them). I don't know if PCRs are an option any more.

Thanks both. I’ve used FF for a while now and never used to get this line so I’m guessing it’s a genuine positive. However, I’m normally negative after 5 days!

My DS frequently gets a faint grey line on flowflex tests, always negative on PCR ( back when that was a thing). His real positives always had a bit of red in so we just ignore the grey lines now.

It's false negatives you're getting on the other brand. Not everyone gets major symptoms with covid, my DH barely knew he'd got it (but tested for an intermittent mild cough because of a vulnerable relative)

Hi, just to update you, I ended up showing positive on the other brand. In fact, I’m still blooming positive and my lungs are hurting like anything.

thanks for the replies - I really appreciate it.

I have only had it once, but was still testing positive at day 10.
I only had flowflex so no idea if it would have been the same with anything else.

... hope you feel better soon.

Thank you @Needapadlockonmyfridge I’m back to being negative on the flowflex but it’s taken 16 days!
