Hi there got tests back saying we are negative but am still going around symtoms as yet the folic acid definency symtoms are similar not all the same doctor thinks am pre covid too on top of the defincemy have had bad headaches all weekend blurry vision too ? Appetites gone again too cant speak too loud at points too 

I couldnt open my eyes properly 

Sitting outside trying to train my eyes to the light just after more painkillers 

still a bit hot and shivery yet smells still gone too am starting to panick incase it dosent come back at all . ? 

Thrush has cleared up from my mouth but still a bit miserable frightned incase when lockdown ends am still unwell ?

How are you doing this is a complete nightmare 

I wonder if the defincency has anything to do with me being very unwell first month

I couldnt cook dinner my son had to take over so I guess I wasnt eating as normal for weeks  plus lots of antibiotics were added before the blood test was done 

I had to google what pre covid is I had no idear ?

Didnt speak to long about it with the doctor my head was too sore on Friday 

Trying the sun but I guess I need to go back in out the way I guess . 

That man on the news is correct this dose affect your vision too I can say so too defintly  

Poor mans not recovered properly you can clearly see that it's such a horrible feeling sale with the prime minister I bet hes absoulty knacred with it .

Such a shame if the public dont understand I can list all the symtoms now each one I've been nursing this since before the 15th of march . Started gradually 

Maybe now I should apply for an antibody test ?

Do you know if they Are they avalible online as yet?  

I hope your feeling better Xxxx

Back in today for another 7 days said I've to rest and I've to wait on another text from the 111 service again so back at home now another 7 days again re new test getting sent out I will do it once more time that's it  if negative this time again the doctors  sound to me like there wrong? Maybe something they haveny tested for yet not ruled out the smaller things plus now I cant see anyone again 

Actualy asked me why I've not had a walk I told them it's because I dont feel well enough completely true a few weeks ago they did say post covid so what am I now covid covid no chance  I asked if theres maybe something there not picking up via the blood test or the deficiency  but I do think theres something missing now what that is I do not know ? 

Ive to stay at home and miss my wee girl for another 7 days ?  as shes back at her dads staying but ready to return back  it's getting a bit too much now I hope everyones feeling better soon Stay Safe 

13 weeks still no smell or alot of taste  around what time should you start to worry if it dose not return  ? 

Am not too shure anymore heads up my backside !

@Shaun1999 Which test did you have done? The test checking if you had it currently, or the antibody test? I've heard there's been some issues with false positives or false negatives with some of them. I have a friend in Canada who arrived during COVID and tested positive and has been in quarantine there until she has two consecutive negative tests. She's been in quarantine for weeks because the tests will come back negative and then positive, so I'm not sure how accurate the tests are. But if you've lost your taste and smell that sounds like COVID as that's a key symptom. My friend lost hers for a number of weeks and it eventually came back, so hopefully that will be the case for you.
Stay safe everyone!
