What would you suggest for those of us who are "hypersymptomatic" due to underlying conditions, such as allergies or acid reflux? One reason I use rapid tests is to justify fibbing about the stuff I always have. It's really the only way I have to rationalize going into work. Otherwise I'm forced to make impossibly subjective assessments of whether my cough is or isn't "dry" or "worsening" or if my nose is runnier than "usual". If someone comes up with a cough-o-meter I'll be more than happy to give up taking rapid tests.
