Thank you for your service as experimental control - doubtless you now feel justified in not being vaccinated and think the rest of us are sheeple and will soon suffer the consequences.
Have you caught Covid recently - updated poll 2022-23

Wow!
I'm pro vaccination, but you do know that there are some people who cannot get vaccinated, even if they wanted to?
I'm just glad the poster is feeling better. The only sheeple reference came from you!

No jabs
Bummer that jabbed people are getting it.
I got it, and two negative tests.
I try to social distance more.
I think there is something funny about the whole thing, I didn't believe it til I got it.
I can't wear a mask.
I'm exempt from them, gonna hand in my exemption jab form to GP eventually.

Sorry that went straight over my head. I'll leave you to it.

Still testing negative here but definitely not right.
Max doses of Paracetamol and Ibuprofen keeping most of the symptoms under control but we both keep getting hit with waves of fatigue that really take it out of you. I managed a short walk at lunchtime today and had to fight the urge to go straight to bed afterwards. Sore throat, occasional shivery moments, thumping headache all come and go.
But still testing negative.

So weird. Have you had a PCR, I can’t remember?Still testing negative here but definitely not right.

It does sound very similar.
Hope you both feel better soon.

Yeah, that sounds very similar to my experience Voley , especially the waves of fatigue.
I'm now in my tenth week off work, and the waves of fatigue seem to have finally come to an end. Had a meeting with my Line Manager today to discuss a phased return to work with reduced hours and light duties. If I can get an appointment with my GP to get their approval, I think I'm finally ready to return to work next week.

strictly off the record
I hear tell that you can have negative LFR tests for up to 6 days after exposure if vaccinated. Following exposure you get a vaccine induced immune response (which causes the symptoms), but the viral load is still too low to be detected by the test. Either your body clears the virus (and the symptoms subsist) or you get a breakthrough infection (and finally record a positive result).Still testing negative here but definitely not right.

Other half's positive, I'm still testing negative but have the symptoms so pretty certain I've got it. PCR's being delivered later so that should confirm.
Both of our symptoms are pretty mild really. Sore throats, achey limbs, banging headache, occasional bouts of total fatigue. Think our jabs are doing most of the heavy lifting with the symptoms. Paracetamol/Ibuprofen helping with the rest.
That makes sense Leighsw2 - sounds just like our situation, ta.

Also positive LFT this morning. Partner came down with it on Tuesday so not unexpected. A bit headachey / spaced out but that's all at the moment. Am now really annoyed at myself for doing work stuff yesterday - which was 90% outside but even so, I should have been keeping away from people - but with no requirement to do so you feel in a really difficult position when you feel fine and are testing negative.
Had covid 2.5 weeks ago. Tested positive until ten days ago. A few good days but keep getting knocked down again. Today can barely walk / getting out of breath. It's weird because I expected it to be 'cold-like'. And it ain't.
Reading above posts suggests the fatigue might last quiet a while :-(

Yeah the ‘it’s just a cold’ attitude is really pissing me off! I think there’s an expectation to just be over it and ok now and lots aren’t.

Almost two months after my first positive LFT and I think my exercise fitness levels are finally near what they were pre virus. Though I still don’t want to drink anything more than a couple of units after thinking the recent unpleasant symptoms may have been linked.

Pleased to hear you're slowly improving andysays. Bloody hell, that's been a long old slog though eh?
Not too bad here today. Tiredness, headache and just generally feeling spaced-out is today's theme. The cough seems to have passed both of us by. PCRs done and sent off and a very quiet weekend ahead of us, I think.

I had six weeks off after the initial infection. I got my voice back maybe a month or so after I went back to work, then lockdown hit and I was on furlough for five months, which was pretty much my recovery time.
When I came off furlough in August 2020 and went back 2-3 days a week, my chest was still fucked and the tiredness hit regularly. Even now, although virtually back to normal, I'm still prone to a bit of occasional wheezyness.

I don't know if it's the same in London but there's been high pollution in Edinburgh the last few days and I have definitely noticed my chest being tight and feeling a bit shit. Negative lat flows here too.
