    I would suggest that if the symptoms last for more days then you should consult a doctor, this can be a severe health issue.

    Honestly saying, I didn't experience any of these symptoms after getting the vaccine. Have you consulted the doctor?

    Our country don't have vaccine yet and hard to access too, i am day 9 now SP02 is unstable 90 - 99. I hope everything alright, I can eat / sleep / walk. Its just that low grade fever bothering me.

    Hi Kelvin,

    Mine lasted two weeks, my SPO2 was fine also. I had heart palpatations, went to ER and they sent me home, Just keep in touch with doctor about heart rate, but I would say another week. My sense of smell came back after three weeks.
