I'm dealing with a cold and cough right now, and it's making me super anxious about my blood sugar levels. I decided to get a blood test done and walked about 500m to the clinic for it. Right after that, I felt the need to check my blood pressure and it came out as 140100. I'm really wondering if my anxiety and the cold are causing this spike in my blood pressure. Could that be possible?

I'm feeling really weak these last couple of days, and it's got me worried. A while back, I was taking Neurobion Forte for low hemoglobin issues. Do you think it would be okay for me to start taking it again, maybe one dose after lunch for the next 15 days? I'm just not sure if it's the right move and would love your take on it.

Can be taken If weakness persist then visit physician

I've been dealing with this constant headache and loose motion for the past 24 hours. The headache's not as bad as it was initially, but it's still there. Should I be concerned or is this just a temporary thing?

-It sounds like you're dealing with a tough combination of symptoms. I'm glad the headache is easing, but persistent loose motions can be draining. It might help to stay hydrated and rest, and if it continues, a doctors advice could be beneficial.
