I had a severe reaction to Paxlovid, the covid antiviral

It caused a heart arrhythmia and it was really scary. I don’t have an arrhythmia anymore so I’m really glad. I can’t take it anymore. I have a 103.1 fever but the dr said that’s ok even though I took Tylenol and ibuprofen. She told me what to look out for and based on that I don’t need to go to the ER. Thankfully. But I do feel awful. My body hurts so much. Ugh
