D dimer is NOT USED for diagnosis of covid. RTPCR and RAT are used for diagnosis, and sometimes CT also. Rest is on clinical suspicion.
If you have symptoms you may still have covid with a normal D dimer.
For full guidance, prescription and follow up take a paid instant consultation. Hope that helps. You can even video consult directly via what sapp on 9999x104x408

D dimer is not used for diagnosis of covid 19. It is used to diagnose pulmonary embolism that is one of the complications of covid 19 and many other diseases like deep vein thrombosis.
Only D dimer normal or borderline or high can not diagnose covid 19.
