Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
You have taken emergency contraceptive pill within 72 hours and quite early too. Hence it has to be effective. All the side effects mentioned need not be experienced by everyone consuming pill. Some may experience and many may not. Side effects are not the indication that the pill has worked.
You will get your period, may be few days late this time. Once you get your periods, it states you are not pregnant.
All the best.
