No I don't but I hope our experience might be helpful. I'm assuming that you have symptoms if you want a PCR test.
We were both ill with a flu like virus from mid March for about 5 weeks. We did not think it was Covid-19, we had no temperature and were never ill enough to be in bed but feeling under the weather and always tired, I was coughing a lot. My husband is 80 and after he had a severe bout of D&V, I phoned a friend who translates for us to see if he could see a Doctor at our local Health Centre. It took a couple of days to get a response, they wanted to rule out Covid-19 first and gave our details to an office at Caravaca Hospital who are monitoring Covid patients. We were told that my husband would be tested (gastric problems being considered as a symptom) and, because of his age, they sent an ambulance to our home to take the PCR swabs here. They did not test me, whatever the result for him, I would be the same as we were not isolating from each other. The test was negative but we still had to give a daily report on our symptoms via our translator for another week. By then we had recovered and felt fine. So he never saw a Doctor at all!
Would the test have been positive if my husband had been tested a couple of weeks earlier? Dunno. There is very little of the lurgy up here in the northwest of Murcia and I did not think we were likely to have caught it but I'm never ill and it went on and on. It would be interesting to have an antibody test.
