Brief Answer:
Electrolyte imbalance.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Get your serum CRP, FBS, Serum Sodium, Potassium and Chlorides. I also suggest to get Serum Calcium.
Till then I suggest you take more electrolytes in the form of buttermilk with salt or ORS. HealthOK satchet is one which wakes you up from tiredness and is quick. You can try it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Microcytic hypochromic anaemia
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
What is the value of Fasting Blood sugar and HbA1c? Glucose in the urine can be because of the medicines that you take. But make sure to rule out diabetes.
Anisocytosis is because of anaemia due to low iron or some slow blood loss. Similarly, low folate can be the reason for weakness.
Even with mild changes in your routine your general health is not adapting to it.
As long as the Iron-folic acid is not corrected you would not feel good about your health. Take Tab OROFER XT twice a day with lemon/orange juice.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
