Tested positive yesterday

I had a rapid test that came out positive. I will be taking a Western Blot tomorrow to accurately confirm results. What a shock. Obviously I am hoping I get a negative Western, but after reading other peoples story, its humbled me to not think I am so special to deserve a break on this. In a sense, I can deal with it, its my wife, and daughter who I am trying to figure out how I would tell them.

I'm sorry to hear your news,I pray the next test comes back negative

What caused you to take the test

Did you have any symptoms and if so how long did they last
