Was licked by a dog 2 weeks, took vaccine 4 days ago

Posted , 1 user is following.

I was on a tour at 31/12/2020 , there I was licked by a dog on my left hands finger where was little abrasions,not sure if mucous membrane was intake, which had a few children with her. I washed my hand by running water. I didn't get serious then. The dog seems to be healthy.

On 9/01/2021 I woke up from sleep,and as usual checked my social media posts. There I found a post regarding rabies. I got a lot worried, and took vaccine that day.

From that way I am a lot depressed and worried. I vomited once. I had a bad stomach. My left hands fingers seem to be tingling and numb sometimes. I developed a low fever for a days. I started hearing ringing sound in my head(Which I had before, when I get anxious, sounds seem to come back. I went for a neurologist who diagnosed and prescribed some drugs, and worked fine!)

I am a ex cancer patients. So my body is not that well,I am always weak and feeble. My heartbeats goes up when I get depressed.

Now the thing is, am I already infected with the virus? What do I need to seek for the symptoms. Or after how many days, I can be sure that I am safe from the virus as I am taking the vaccine.

Thanks in advance.
