Change of taste and smell here as well. Completely lost both for about 3 weeks and I am not convinced taste has 100% recovered (cheese and onion crisps do not taste like they once did!). This was end of March and in June I had an antibody test which showed a positive result, so at least I know I have had it, not sure what use that is though. I have no idea where I caught it, train into London or large office obvious options. The pharmacist who carried out my test said all but one of the positive tests he had seen at that time, reported loss/change of taste and smell.
Had it in March, the week of lockdown. I needed to wait until May to find out for certain - my symptoms weren't serious enough to get tested, but I paid for a private antibody test which came back positive.

My symptoms started on March 14th with a tickle in the back of my throat. As it wasn't one of the advertised Covid symptoms, I figured it was more of end of winter cold than Covid itself.

A week went by until I got a fever. At this point I was feeling pretty poorly and spent a few days in bed with a headache and some other aches and pains. I had minor breathing difficulties including a horrible feeling of there being crushed glass in my lungs. This would come and go, usually OK in the morning and worse in the evening.

After the high temperature I self-isolated for a week (as was the advice at the time). A week later I was feeling OK other than a persistent cough that lasted another two weeks or so.

Funnily enough I had no change to my sense of taste or smell!
