I'm a bit concerned because for the past year, I've been dealing with excess mucus, especially in the morning, and it's usually yellow or gray. I did an IgE test and an X-ray back in April, and the doctor said it was a seasonal allergy, suggesting I take Montek LC at bedtime for a month, but I only stuck with it for a week. Occasionally, about once a week or even less, I get shortness of breath around bedtime. Recently, I got the Covaxin vaccine about five days ago, and since then, I've noticed that my blood pressure is a bit low at 10570, and I've been getting shortness of breath and a rapid heartbeat at times. Could this be from the vaccine, or is it the allergies acting up? I also experience some gastric issues, like passing a lot of gas. I work out almost daily and don't have any other health problems, my SPO2 levels are usually between 96 and 98. What do you think I should do for treatment?
