Ok I need someone who’s not incredibly anxious help me here lol. I had a throat swab for the COVID-19 test. CDC recommends nasal swabs over throat. Idk if it’s more accurate? I tested negative. I’m starting to feel better but i still have the dry cough. I can’t even turn my head or talk more than a sentence without a coughing fit. Would you just take the negative result and continue with your life? Or would you push to be tested again with the nasal swab?

We have a lot of coughing viruses going around I had it and also convid negative
I’m a worry wart so I feel piece of mind could help sometimes it’s easier to know than the unknown
I don’t know how to advise, but I hope you start feeling better soon hun 💜
Prayers that it is just a common illness and nothing more serious. Feel better soon!
That's so odd. Have they ruled out every thing? The stiffness reminds me of meningitis but the cough reminds me of walking pneumonia.
I thought they only do the nasal swab to test for it? 🤔 at least according to my SIL who is a respiratory therapist in the hospital.
@kellynicole, of course if you’re going to be working or out of the house and you feel like your first result was inaccurate, get tested. If you were staying home and nobody in the home was leaving and around others It wouldn’t be needed. My kids and I picked up a bug a few weeks ago. It took weeks to get rid of the cough. At first it was dry but over time became productive and got better. Hopefully yours is nothing serious. Is anyone else in the home sick?
@dontblockmesis-imjustspeakingfacts, I’m the only one. It’s been almost two weeks since my first symptom appeared. Most symptoms have stopped it’s just the cough now
@kellynicole, we got sick on the beginning of March and just recently got rid of the cough. Do you have a humidifier?
For piece of mind especially since you work in the medical field ( I think? ) I’d ask for the nasal swab .
I do work in healthcare! It just sucks the tests take so long
@kellynicole, I thought so just wasn’t sure lol , if it’s going to make you feel better or less anxious go for it .
I didn’t know there was a throat swab though
but first this is the test I got excited about, I
took it later yesterday morning at only 8dpo.
Did I get excited for nothing? :(
I didn't tell anyone other than preggie and hubby, I showed him the test and he was so happy it breaks my heart. Ik I still have a week before my period is even due so Ik If I was I'm very early but that negative this morning has me honestly crushed! what do you think by this test? what would you have thought? :(
What would you be thinking now if you got a neg the nex...
Mommies I need your help! Do you see the + or is it negative? The other test I took showed way more than this one!! First test in comments
on the 6th October I did 2 test with 2 lines , 3rd test was clear blue digital and was positive 2-3 weeks I was waiting for a month for a midwife appointment.. so yesterday I started bleeding went today for a scan and they go to me no sac .. but can see a cyst or a sac outside the womb so therefore she did another test there and it was negative .. she said if it was positive it would have been ectopic pregnancy but because it was negative she said it's miscarriage.
Has anyone else been through...
So now that I have my test strips when do I start testing! I am on day 2 of af today and it lasts about 3-4 days normally. I have about a 26-27 day cycle. Any help would be very appreciated thank you!!😀
TTC #2 (or more) and married group-Join Us!
I started a TTC group for women who are ttc #2 (or more!), and married. I didn't do it to specifically exclude others, but to allow women in similar situations to find each other. We can all still happily participate in the general forum, but I thought it would be nice to have like minded people to talk to about ttc and motherhood. If you would like to join let me know and I'll send you an invite!
Same with me. I tested neg. I felt better. And still feel even better now. But the cough has stuck with me. Hurts my ears at times. But it's getting better. Doesn't help that I have allergies 🙄 I keep a humidifier going. It's helped
