Hi Chandru,
Thank you for your query.
One can have symptoms as described by you following the rabies vaccine for which nothing has to be done. Following the next dose you should wait for about 15-20 minutes at the doctor's place before moving out.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing you all the best.
