Hi everyone,
I need help understanding why i got a negative covid19 test while my gf got a positive (twice!). We both live together, and we've been sleeping in the same bed, share food, kiss, intimacy, yet my results came back negative.
Going back couple weeks (nov 3rd thru the 5th), I think i caught the cold from my gf. She started having runny nose and coughs. I caught the cold from her around the 4th i think, started getting coughs, runny nose and mild sore throat. It hit the hardest for me on the 5th. Had terrible cough (phlegm), bad headache, but next day it was better, and on Sunday i fully recovered.
My gf had gone to a state where there was many known covid cases. She went from 6th, came back on 9th. Then started feeling COVID symptoms on the 11th. She had fatigue, loss and taste and smell, and mild coughs. She tested postive for COVID on Nov 18th. Nov 19th is when i started feeling something, mild body aches, then the 21th, i had sore throat, and a headache - That same day, i went to get tested with my gf testing again, but I came back NEGATIVE, while she retained her POSITIVE.
Today, I seem fine, my sore throat is still there, but i can feel it getting better. But im curious as to why I got a negative? Do i have low viral load? I take multivitamins, which includes D and i also take Zinc 50mg daily.
My gf is better now, she has a senses back completely as of today. We are going to get tested again tomorrow.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
