Posted on Fri, 13 May 2016
Question: I have been feeling feverish and there is some bitterness in my mouth. I have also been feeling weakness and body pains. When I take paracetamol it becomes okay.
When I message my head, it pains slightly.
I feel cold as well.
It is now the third day.
I am aged 70.
I take Crestor 5mg once a day, Zyloric 100mg once a day, Contiflo 0.4mg once a day. I urinate 4-5 times a day which is more than my normal. The color of the urine is normal.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported. The raise the possibility of an infection and could be of the urinary passages. To further explore and gather more details needed to make this call, I will recommend that you get a full blood count to look for arguments in support of a possible infection and a urinary test to see if these are findings suggestive of a urinary tract infection. These two will help guide orient the evaluation and treatment of this condition. Keep me posted about the findings for evaluation and more orientation.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
