Just looked this up:
If you have an LFD antigen test within 90 days of a previous positive COVID-19 PCR test, for example as part of a workplace or community testing programme, and the result of this test is positive, you and your household should self-isolate and follow the steps in this guidance again.
Edit: so I guess you'd be eligable for another PCR at that point which could be negative in which case no isolation
Polygon-
Where was this from?
Here's the regulation, which I think matches up with what I said. I think the relevant bits are from 1 to 5. It's not exactly a straight forward read so there is every chance I've misinterpreted it!
Someone shared this before when I was in a similar position.

No, you just have to isolate for the 10 days from you first positive test. I think they say you shouldn't test for 90 days once you are positive. I guess it is because it is still in your system but you are not infectious
