I took it got positive results. Already feeling it a few days ago. But thought id test out just to figure out what to do. So im staying home. Do my own thing and very well. Worse part im had are stabbing pains out did the aches. Now those are gone and feeling way better. How much longer do i wait before i use the second swab after i feel symptom free to try for a negative?

Thanks
 

I have used these home tests 4 times. The first time I tested an elderly neighbor. She tested positive immediately, we waited a week, then tested her ( per dr. recommended time), negative results.

For myself, only negative results, thankfully. It's a wise thing to do before getting together for a dinner with friends, or other gathering, if you are uneasy.
 
At my workplace, staff is not tested for (I think) for 3 months if they have had covid because they can continue to test positive. That is with the lab test, not the rapid. I'd check DR. Google to see what it says about how long you are contagious. At work, you are allowed back in 10 days.

Hope you are fully well soon.

Ive only had about 36hr of rough patch. Mostly aches and stabbing pains instead of just aching pains. I had a headache off and on. And have only a jab of pain in my head today. I'm fine and on my last leg of this. I may test tomorrow morning. I want to show up for pickleball graduation pictures at 10 am. 😄🏓I need to be negative first.
I had covid in may but was negative on pcr. Thats when I decided I wanted a self test. I was pretty sick for almost 2 full weeks. Besides my 20$ copay is now used on binex. 😄

Well darn I forgot. I need to wait a couple days after last symptoms are gone. 😭 oh well. I will wait.
