No fast test. They did a swab and sent it somewhere, not sure where. They called me the next afternoon, I guess that was about 36 hours turn around time. One thing they did say that you cannot even get tested if it has been more than 5 days since the onset because there is not enough of the virus present. I was right on the bubble, I went on the 5th day. The worst part was that I had also developed strep throat and had to go on a whole different kind of meds for that. Constantly Coughing with strep throat is not fun. At least this flu does not have much in the way of stomach issues, it is mostly respiratory. I still cannot hear out of one ear, except for the ringing in it. The cough is still present but the sore throat is finally gone as of this morning. []
