Did anyone else develop a cough on day 9/10?

I’ve only had one jab (please don’t rip me to shreds) I had a bad reaction to it, which put me off the rest. I’m 32 and female. Overweight, but not obese.

I started off with just a scratchy throat and feeling tired/shivery.
No headache.
Then as the days have gone on, I’ve felt okay for the most part but just a sore throat, I had one night where I was very sweaty.
On day 9 (yesterday) I had a heaviness in my chest. Today on day 10 I’m coughing and I feel my chest loosening, so I’m obviously coughing stuff up, but I’m scared it’ll get worse.
I take my oxygen levels regularly and they are 98/99 currently.

I had a cough develop after I started testing negative... was a compulsive one, worse at night and was so intense that I developed abs from it! After 3 days, it went away. Try not to worry, it will pass!

Yes me. I was really annoyed! Started on day 10! Lasted a couple weeks. Mine was really dry, I wasn’t coughing anything up. If what you are coughing up is very green/yellow, you might have got a secondary infection. Worth a doc listening to your chest!

I did (first wave 2020). I was really fluey for about a week, then around day 10 got a fucking awful cough for about 3 weeks. My lungs are still wheezy now nearly two years on. At least you had one jab, fingers crossed that will have helped.
