To test or not to test

If my symptoms are sore throat, mild cough, stuffy nose. No fever. Had a killer headache Saturday night (no I wasn’t drunk). Should I waste my time and a test or is it a legit concern? Can’t wait to get shite on by some of you guys, but some serious answers would be appreciated

Yes. I had those symptoms about 3 days before I lost my sense of smell. I tested positive.
Dont frick around just go get tested and avoid going near other people.
eta: i never broke fever. If i didnt lose smell i would have never thought I had it.
Dont be selfish and not want to get tested because you're afraid to get tested or your personal beliefs about the virus. there are still people who are dying from it.

It could the common cold or like J said... Doesn't hurt to get tested (to at least know for sure) but just stay home for a few days

RIP in peace, mastablasta.
We hardly knew him.

All good bro I had a very mild case.
Although it's been 3 weeks and I still cant smell. From what I've read it could take weeks to months in some cases.

Sounds so deadly. You had a virus that you wouldn't even know you had if it wasn't for a test.

I wake up with those symptoms all the time
It’s allergies

Taste buds?

Can’t believe people are actually asking this question seriously. Yes, get tested. Good grief people.

Do you hate football and freedom? If so, go get tested.

Think what you want, but I was wrong. jUst hoping to spread a little awareness here.

I wouldn't test, but I probably would try to stay home and away from folks... like I would any other time I didn't feel well.

Why do you need to get tested to stay the frick at home? You're one of those assholes who gets a cold and goes to work, aren't you?

I’m confused by this. Do you go around people when you’re sick with other sicknesses? I guess I don’t see why knowing or not knowing would change your behavior.
