I'm recovering from dengue and I've been feeling constantly weak and tired. Is this normal during the recovery phase? Also, is it okay for me to drink Glucon D to help with the weakness?

Question

Got COVID symptoms on May 9th and tested positive. Did another test 15 days later on May 24th, still positive. All symptoms are gone and I've finished taking all the medicine. What should I do next?

I'm really worried because I've had a fever for the past 5 days, and after seeing a doctor, I found out that my white blood cell count is down to 2300 and my platelets are at 0.81 lakhs. I did a dengue test today, and it came back positive, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. My doctor mentioned something about starting treatment on the 5th day. Can you please help me understand what kind of treatment to expect for dengue?

Question

I've been using Nicotex for the past 10 days. I know there's a specific cycle for using it. Since I don't feel like I need it much, I'm just taking 1 or 2 chews daily. Is that okay, or should I be following the cycle more strictly?
