Should I Get A Second Opinion?

Hello, I have another issue lol. Over the past four days I have had an on-off temperature with highs of 40.2. I was also experiencing body aches from head to toe and very sensitive skin. I have had a covid test and the results where negative so I assumed it was just viral. Today I broke out in a blotchy non itchy rash all over my torso so I took myself to a&e incase of an infection. The doctor took one look and said it was viral and then went on to saying that covid isnt real... Since then I have developed a new kind of rash/hives all over my legs that fade within an hour and move elsewhere and this rash is itchy. I have also got a strange tiredness/deadness in my legs, upper arm and lower back. Any clue if this is just viral or should I get a second opinion?

COVID most definitely IS real and any doctor who says otherwise cannot be trusted at all. Do seek a 2nd opinion, for which you GP is the first port of call. He will refer you to the right specialist if he thinks you need their services.

Do try to get out of bed at least for long enough to wash well each day.

Definitely get a second opinion. All is not ok inside your body at present. But in the meantime, drink plenty of fluids and take medication like paracetamol to get your temperature down.
