Hi, Welcome to HCM.

Based on the symptoms mentioned in your query you are suffering from viral fever which is associated with myalgia.
Your infection has started as infection of the upper respiratory tract which has spread to the lungs.
Due to swallowing of infected sputum, some may develop a upper gastrointestinal infection also.
I suggest you get a culture and sensitivity of sputum to rule out secondary bacterial infection which is very common in viral fever.
Get a prescription for appropriate antibiotics based on the test results.

The following tips are suggested:
1. Complete bed rest as best treatment for viral fever is to sleep it off.
2. Drink sufficient water to keep your body hydrated.
3. Take a fluid diet avoiding spices.

Increased stress levels can cause occurrence of menstruation.If such episodes repeat for the next two cycles, a gynecologist opinion is needed.

I hope I have cleared all your doubts. Please do not hesitate to get back.

Thanks.
