Well I'm still testing positive on day ten, wondering if I'll ever get a negative result, don't want to be off my meds much longer. I wondering if its because of the immunosuppression that keeping me esting positive, longer to fight I'd off possibility? Still coughing but only night and morning and other of symptoms tiredness and occasional hot flush ,thought at 66 I'd finished with those, are not as bad.
Update
Finally tested negative on day 14, Thanks for all the support
I've only tested negative this morning for the first time and that's Day 12 for me. I'm also immunosuppressed. Still coughing, bunged up and tired but other than that I'm doing okay now.
I may be way off here - apologies if so - but I'm sure that a friend of mine mentioned that once you'd had Covid you were told not to test for a certain time as you were bound to test positive 🤔
I think that its once you have a negative test after coming out of covid, so once your over it they advise not test I think for 60 days
You are asked to test from day 5 - 10 so that once you have two consecutive negative days you can stop self-isolating (although no longer legally binding but it's still the advice). I continued to test yesterday and today because I had a dental appointment today and they would only see me if I was negative - their policy.
Still going to test as until I'm negative I won't go and see my 91 year old mum just to be on the safe side, also read a report from usa which says immunosuppressed can be infectious for 20 days as immune system needs longer to fight of virus, how true that is I'm not sure.
It is 90 days and it is because you can have false positive readings for that length of time. My daughter in law has just been in that position. She had covid before Christmas. Last week she randomly tested positive and 2 days later negative again. She had no symptoms but was still within the 90 day period so it wasn't accepted as a true reading.
Hi my GP told me not to take a test so soon after having covid as you won't get a true reading
Thanks , but the covid app says test on day 5 and 6 or until you have 2 consecutive negative results, My husband tested negative on day 7, I just want to know when I can visit my mum and when I can restart my meds
Oh gosh ten days and still positive, that's tough for you. I'm sorry to hear you're still suffering a bit too. It makes you wonder whether you could have had more than one variant followed by another; I wonder if that's possible? I hope you feel much better soon. Do you think you might need some antibiotics? Perhaps try and speak to your GP (good luck with that!).
Thank you , I will try my GP on Monday thanks
One of my family was positive for 11 days and there not on immunosuppressants.. is your line on the test fading?
No the lineups not fading ,but have read that's not any indication of the infection wearing. Fingers crossed for tomorrow
Yes my family found it was 12 days
Strangely enough my hubby tested positive on day 9, next day he took another and it was negative, next day positive but only a faint line but still positive, he is now on day 12 and still positive. He feels fine and I’m so grateful I have not had it and we have been stuck in breathing the same air, he feels fine, he will do another today but he was also wondering why it’s going on so long. What worries me is that not everyone is sticking to the rules like us and once they feel fine are going about their business and still positive and probably passing it on.
My aunt was 11 days before she tested negative but was still fatigued after. Take care
I work in a school, so lots of people at my place have caught Covid, and the majority of them have been testing positive for 10 days or more. It seems to be a persistent little blighter, but all have now come back to work - so I’m sure the old red line will fade soon. 🤞🙏
Zoe app said that for older people and those who were immune suppressed that it was worth waiting from the positive tests until at least 10 days before retesting as it takes that long to clear. So it does seem quite common.
Feel better soon Chrissycl 💐
Thank you,feeing better today but still positive but not unwell
My uncle , who is not immunocompromised is still testing positive on day 9. The length of the being infected does seem to vary greatly between people.
I was the same! Did a PCR test and that came out positive too! Told to isolate for a further ten days which I said was okay as I had done so for the last 18 months!Finally clear LFTafter 22 days. So keep going up that path and get well as soon as you can 💐
Thank you, that gives me reasurance and a little hope.
Doc said definitely NOT long covid- just my body doing it’s RA thing so stay warm drink loads and stay positive 🌹in attitude not covid 😝
Hi I tested positive on 30th of January an it took six weeks to get a negative test result. I was given a antibody transfusion because I’m on biologic medicine after a month they just told me to start biologic meds even with positive test
Hi Chrissycl, I tested positive for ten days and then the line on the test cassette started getting fainter over the next three days until it disappeared. I had just come off biologics a couple of weeks previously so that may have affected it but I can’t be sure.
Hope you feel better soon. x
That’s good news! Take it easy now as you get your strength back. 😊
