Very exhausted, pains n aches poor appetite and what started as a dry cough but now on occasion there is phlegm.. to anyone else who has tested positive that had a cough, was cough with it without phlegm please? I’m hoping I just have normal chest infection and not covid... any word from anyone who tested positive with or without phlegm is welcome

I rang my own doctor on Monday because my daughter has symptoms and she said she'd put us forward for a test. I ended up having a test Monday night but I'm not sure if that was the South doc or doctors referral. That apology text said sorry your waiting on your covid 19 test, it didn't say anything about results. I'm really hoping for a result tomorrow because there is no body I can contact to check the status. It'll will be 8 days tomorrow waiting on a result

Holy Diver wrote: » I just got a negative result. I asked when I can go back to work. Basically she said I need to be symptom free for two days. I said I still have a cough (nearly 3 weeks now). The direction is to stay at home as I have some other ailment going on.
