Position of still

Hi.

What is the right position of still.

I was still feeling weak or I still was feeling weak.

Thanks



More context:

After sometime I recuperated from the after effects of being in that dark room, but I still was feeling weak.




It is requested further to tell me what I can use in substitution of after effects in the above sentense.

I know the word aftermath but it is mostly used for war, earthquake and so forth.



feel free to change the whole sentense if it should be.

Thanks for your help and time in advance
