According to protocol, you can stop isolating yourself 10 days from the day you have no symptoms without any medication. You don’t have to do any tests again. Hydrate yourself and have a good diet. Rest adequately. Get well soon :)

Hello!!
According to the recent protocol, you do not have to retest.
Isolation adviced for 10-14 days (varies in different states) from the day when your symptoms have subsided.
Follow social distancing, washing of hands and wear a mask.
Please do not be anxious.
Take a consult if you are in need of further clarification.
Thank you :)
