General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

It looks like you are stressed out. Take a break. You are having the symptoms of dehydration, low blood pressure, low glucose level and over exertion. You are suggested to take plenty of plain water, ORS / Electrol, soups and juices. Stay away from anxiety and help your body maintain sodium and potassium depletion. Take adequate rest and stay well fed to maintain the vitals of your body.

You can take acetaminophen or Ibuprofen & muscle relaxants to ease out muscle aches and headaches. Take food that is rich in iron, calcium, protein. Take berries, fruits and whole cereals. Stay away from addictions if any. You can take multi vitamins like Zincovit (once daily for ten days).

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
