still afraid

just woke up and found myself sweating not bc im hot  bc i actually kind of cold. Im now waiting for my for retest which i will be calln the doc at 9am. Its 3am in the morning and  cant sleep. My question is what is the likelyhood of someone testing negative after 3 months and then testing positive at 5 months? I know 3 months is conclusive but there are outlyers. Do people that test positive always have a rash, sore throat, and fever? I have none but a boat load of other symptoms. Im loosing my grip!
