Suggest Treatment For Insomnia, Headache And Nausea

Hi, I am a university student. I strongly believe I suffer from insomnia, this is affecting me negatively in a lot of different ways, I feel sleepy and unable to sleep, headaches, nausea, loss of appetite, extreme sweet/salty food cravings, feverish, lack of focus and horrible span of attention. Having gone to the doctor, and getting blood work done, the only thing they pointed out was that I was severely deficient in B12 and Iron, and told me to start taking supplements. I haven't been regular in that, but I do not think they are related to my sleeplessness. Please advise as to how I should get around this problem. It is starting to show in my work and I do not want to slip any more. Thank you

Hi thanks for your question.
First you correct b12 deficiency by starting injection of cynocobalemine or take oral tablets.
Iron supplemention can be taken by ferrous sulphate tablet or iron containing food like jaggery, red meat, palak etc.
For overcome sleep disorder first don't stress at all.
Take milk at night. Take somewhat easy dinner at night.
Take 1 hour regular exercise.
Go to bed 2 hour after dinner.
This will mostly work
If still have problem zolpidem can be started.
I hope I have answer you the best.
