Hi, from the information you gave and the report looks like you had covid with mild lung involvement. Like any other viral illness post covid you can have undue fatigue aches and pains. Also the cough will take a few weeks to subside. And vitamin supplements help in faster recovery.
Next Steps
Check your vitamin D and B12 levels and take supplements if they are low.
You can do a baseline ECG and Echo.
Buy a respirometer and do breathing exercise with it, will help with your recovery
If cough persists you can consult your physician and take a cough syrup
