Yes: You absolutely should be tested because you have a positive exposure. Make sure you drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and eat more fruits and vegetables.

COVID 19: Some individuals who are COVID 19 positive have primarily GI symptoms. So, testing would help to rule out COVID as the cause of your current symptoms.
