                                    Brief Answer:
The symptoms may last longer
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I read your query and here is my advice.
If you tested positive of covid two days after having your booster this is more likely that you will feel more covid symptoms or they will last more.
I don't think there will be major issues, symptoms related to covid since you were previously vaccinated. You may feel mild symptoms that may last longer than if you didn't have covid.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.
