Greeting from Dr. Divakara.P
First of all thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.
Flu usually doesn't last for more than a week . Are you sure that it is flu ? Was it diagnosed by a doctor ?
Because if it is not flu we need to investigate other causes of your weakness , Nervousness and Shakiness.
The other possible causes are Anaemia, Vitamin Deficiencies , Liver problem , Kidney problem or Heart Problems .
Also you have mentioned you are taking usual medicines I need to know what are they and since how long you are taking those?
Kindly revert back with details asked .
