Post AZ Vaccination Symptoms and Medicines
I am a woman in my 23rd. I received my AZ first dose vaccination shot yesterday and today, I have cold shivers, high fever, headache and body aches all over the place.
The doctor at the vaccination centre advised me to take paracetamol but may I know if it’s okay if I take painkiller (mefenamic acid) and Caffox? I feel like only these two can truly cure my headache it hurts so much
