History of dog bite. Taken TT and Anti Rabies vaccine. Developed abdominal pain. headache and fever. Nowadays the anti rabies vaccines are cell cultured and the adverse reaction for the vaccine is very minimal. This may be a part of immune response to the vaccine. Anyway you have consulted the doctor and he has assured you.
