    Anyone know if this shows up on the those home covid test kits. I tested negative but have been in bed for ~3 days now. Fever, sinus issues, fatigue, general fogginess and lack of balance.

    Ah, general soreness as well. Things like picking relatively light weight will sting in the muscles like needles

      I had relatively similar symptoms, maybe a little more mild but the tests didn’t show up anything for me, however my boss had a lab test and he tested positive for covid. The doctors told him whatever new variant is out there doesn’t typically show up on the at home tests.

      Home test bought today tested negative. Had symptoms like this for a few days. Cough, major weakness, body aches, fatigue. The only thing is I don’t really have nasal congestion so not sure if I got anything on my swab.

      Gonna test for flu, too. Or it could just be sepsis from the kidney stone I passed last week :)
