  1. I am currently isolating as I tested positive for the very first time on Thursday ( i am 60 years old ) and am just entering my fourth day of positivity . My symptoms started with a severe runny nose , sneezing and a slight sore throat which I all initially put down to hay fever until things got really uncomfortable and i did a lateral flow test . The runny nose has now mostly subsided as has the sneezing although i still have a sore throat and strange metallic taste in my mouth plus a cough and some mucus coming from my chest accompanied by extreme fatigue but also restlessness at the same time ( weird ) and a slight temperature . My concern here is about the chest situation as I have read and heard that the BA.4 & BA.5 sub variants attack further down in the lungs again ? , similar to the earlier alpha and delta variants . Do you have anymore information on this John ? . As I work for the NHS I obviously will not be able to return to work until a few days of negative results and also my cough and increasing painful chest improves ( I am double jabbed and Boosted, I believe we are due to be offered our fourth jab/ Second booster in October with the flu jab )

  2. I have a question for people out there . I have now tested positive for 7 days running and felt pretty lousy with cough , sore throat, coughing up mucus from chest , some headache and aches & pains in neck and shoulders , teeth pain as well . Anyway my lateral flow positive lines have been getting fainter on days 5 & 6 but is much darker again on day 7 ...... is this possible ? , have others thought they were almost over it and then their lateral flow result got stronger again ???? .... getting fed up now .
