Fever body ache blocked nose - covid?

Question

Asked for Female, 31 Years

Hi my husband got fever on Saturday and I got it on Sunday. We consulted a general physician, He gave us medicines and told to self quarantine for 3 days as a precaution and update him status on 3 rd day. So as of today fever has gone for both of us but felling little weakness. So he said to do rtpcr for covid. But is it really required? As we don't have any symptoms. We are smelling and tasting things, No difficulty in breathing, I have little blocked nose and my husband has irritated throat like ulcer.. Covid required?
