Different symptoms GPS phone diagnosis

Also if one family member has a positive Covid test, the rest of the household "can" carry on going out and about as normal. Previously they'd all have had to stay home.
That, according to the Boots pharmacist I saw recently for my flu jab, is why the virus is spreading again at the moment.

I had a gp appointment coming up but had sore throat and headache, though lateral flow tests were negative I went and had a PCR test which was also negative so was able to see GP onn 18 nov.....was given antibiotics......then since a week ago have got the the most dreadful head cold....nose streaming and cough feel awful...Having a PCR test delivered tomorrow (Lateral flow negative) will let you know result.....live alone .

Hope you soon feel better lemsip It's hard being ill when living alone.

Hope you feel better soon xxx
DGD has recovered well in just over a week despite being severely asthmatic. I think the vaccine is definitely making symptoms much milder in a lot of cases.

The top symptoms of covid in vaccinated people are (according to the Zoe app) are in order of prevalence-
1) runny nose, 2)headache, 3) sneezing.4) sore throat, 5) persistent cough and only after those fever and loss of taste and smell.

I guess that is a similar set of symptoms to most colds also doing the rounds at present.

I hope you are all feeling better!

sparklefizz thanks so much.. Had text that pcr test delivery between 10 and 1pm. I shall do it straight away and post it back. slept sitting up in recliner chair last night as could not lay down for coughing.

Oh dear, lemsip, how miserable. Have you had your PCR results yet?

The first test sent to me was missing a security sticker so had to request another . it arrived 7th I done it and reurned it that day ..result came through today .. it was negative, so it is a very nasty cold and the cough is on my chest now. at least not covid though.
