Hi and welcome back @meoman
Your profile doesn't say where you are in the world, so I suggest that you check your own government's official web pages for the guidance they suggest. Different countries are making significantly different suggestions on the length of time you isolate, and the method by which you seek medical attention, if you feel you need it.
(the UK guidance can be found on the www.GOV,UK website, which has further links to the Irish, Scottish and Welsh websites)
Do you have access to any testing, to find out if you actually have it? Again, different countries are testing different numbers of people, so it can be very local.
You may also find the WHO website useful on symptoms, and the worldometer website which lists the different symptoms - which vary hugely between people.
Hope you feel better soon, and you have a mild case of COVID-19, if that is what you have.

Yup
Since you are in the UK, you can find out lots on the GOV.uk website, and the NHS website too - which gives clear instructions on what to do, and when to seek medical attention (if your condition deteriorates enough to need it.

Meoman - I don't know if you got to work, what age you are or your domestic circumstances are, but the following link has information on whether you would be eligible to have a test at the moment: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-getting-tested .
If you are in a qualifying group, it could be worth enquiring sooner, rather than later, as apparently the tests are most accurate if the test happens within a few days.
Good luck, and I hope you can shake off whatever how seem to have pronto.
