The way to know if your symptoms were because of COVID 19 is to get tested for it because the symptoms are not specific for any one disease.

Possible that you have Covid or another infectious (probably viral) illness. Please get tested so you will know. Depending on which vaccine you got, you may not be fully vaccinated yet;your initial illness may not have been a reaction to the vaccine as you may have been exposed prior and then still got sick. Even though you are better now, best to get tested to know if you’re contagious to others.
