To test or not…

So I had a bbt dip at 7dpo, I also experienced D&V around this time for 48 hours, including sharp pains in my left side of pelvis. I’ve had the usual hormonal cramping and headaches I get before AF but am now a day late. Ive also had a cold and felt run down. Do I test? Nervous I’m just going to see a negative
