You need a PCR as you have symptoms. Don't trust the LFT

Thatโ€™s how I felt when I had Covid

Lateral flows were negative. Pcrs were positive though.

I got to work this morning and suddenly developed a horrendous sore throat. Fortunately I was on my own in the office today. It's wearing off now.

DS had exactly the same throat a couple of days ago. Negative test for him. I'll do one in the morning if mine comes back.

Apparently the worst cold ever is going round now Sad

'Apparently the worst cold ever is going round now sad'

Yep. We had it a couple of weeks ago. Started with sore scratchy throat, then tight chest, then streaming nose and sore sinuses. Absolute exhaustion all the way through. Took about 10 days to feel normal again. So it may not be Covid OP. It's a nasty little bugger though. Hope you feel better soon

My DD has this at the moment, LFT's also negative here. I'd say it was pretty normal for her to go down with some kind of virus within the first month back to school so I'm hoping it's that but I'm keeping an eye on it.
