Unfortunately not. The change in smell happened a few days before my first shot. That's lucky though, as there's no telling what I'd believe if I'd been fine and then thought the shot ruined my taste.

Fatigue and rapid heartbeat being cured by a vaccine sounds like psychosomatic long COVID. This is a hot button topic that few professionals will bother examining in a critical fashion.
Loss of sense of smell is not psychosomatic. Unfortunately, viral infections can cause sometimes permanent loss.

Unfortunately the vaccine helps only in about 20% of the cases.

please stop with comments starting with 'i've heard that' - there is enough misinformation already.
Please. add. citations.

They're literally asking for someone to weigh in with first-hand experience on something they heard but are not sure about. It's a valid question that I would also like to hear about.
Citations are more relevant for when people are making a claim than for when they are investigating a claim.
Hope you recover fully.
Edit: since someone asked for citations, here is a CNN link

I follow the "This week in virology" podcast and they have discussed this extensively as well. Dr Daniel Griffin, cited in the CNN article is a weekly contributor on this podcast, and has mentioned the effect in question multiple times.
