Thank you for asking on HealthcareMagic.com, providing better healthcare for you. I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. Cycling isn't advisable if you are asleep or you have dizziness, because you may loose control. Give yourself a couple of days rest until you feel full recovered. Take Advil 400mg three times daily for headache. Get enough fluids 6-8 glasses daily to subside lethargy. Start your activity with yoga, walking then cycling. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star rating, to help me assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful too'.
