Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for writing to H.C.M.F.
As you describe you had viral hepatitis , followed by weakness and dizzyness. 2 years back you had vertigo and treated with vertin 8 mg.twice daily. You are feeling depressed, and tense.
After Infection and treatment for infectivehepatitis there will be weakness due to gastric irritation, if you get treated for that you will be fine so i advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment.
The reason of vertigo could be of central origin as before, so you can use vertin as well till you get relief of the symptoms.
Wishing for a quick recovery,
Best regards.
