I've been dealing with a fever and weakness for the last three days. I've been taking paracetamol, but I still don't feel any better. The laziness and weakness are just lingering. What could be going on, and should I be worried?

Morning Walk for Weight Gain: To Eat or Not to Eat Beforehand
Eating before a morning walk:
- Pros:
- Provides energy for the walk
- Helps prevent low blood sugar
- Can support weight gain by increasing calorie intake
- Cons:
- May cause digestive discomfort during the walk
- Can lead to an insulin spike, potentially hindering weight gain efforts
Walking on an empty stomach:
- Pros:
- Can increase fat burning and boost metabolism
- May improve mental clarity and focus
- Cons:
- May lead to low energy levels and decreased walk performance
- Can cause dizziness or lightheadedness
Recommendation for weight gain:
- Eat a light snack: Consume a small, balanced snack about 30-60 minutes before your morning walk. This can include:
- Fresh fruits with nuts or seeds
- Energy bars
- Yogurt with honey or fruit
- Choose calorie-dense foods: Select snacks that provide a mix of carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats to support weight gain.
- Stay hydrated: Drink water before, during, and after your walk to ensure proper hydration.
Remember, a balanced diet and consistent training are key to achieving your weight gain goals.

View allI'm really worried because my husband, who's 33 years old, just got a positive result from his RTPCR test with a CT value of 32.819. He's had a mild cough and sore throat for the past four days, but his oxygen levels are at 99. I'm trying to figure out what this CT value of 32 means. Does it suggest a mild infection, or should we be more concerned about a greater level of infection?
Given your age, lifestyle, and symptoms, possible causes of mild chest pain include: 1. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Strained muscles or costochondritis (inflammation of cartilage connecting ribs to breastbone). 2. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus, causing chest pain. 3. _Anxiety or stress_: Tension leading to chest discomfort. 4. _Cardiovascular issues_: Although less likely given your lifestyle, it's essential to rule out conditions like hypertension, high cholesterol, or cardiac arrhythmias. Consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including: 1. Physical examination 2. Electrocardiogram (ECG) 3. Blood tests (e.g., lipid profile, cardiac enzymes) 4. Imaging tests (e.g., echocardiogram, stress test) if necessary Don't hesitate to seek medical attention if you experience: - Severe chest pain - Shortness of breath - Dizziness or lightheadedness - Pain radiating to your arms, neck, or jaw

I'm dealing with a constant fever that hovers around 99 to 100 degrees and it's been more than a month now. I've had all the tests done and the only thing that came up was a slight liver enlargement. Besides that, I'm really struggling with weakness, headaches, body aches, dizziness, lower abdomen pain, and severe leg pain. Could you please offer some advice on what's going on and what steps I should take next?
Since no specific cause has been identified in the reports, it is important to consider a broad differential diagnosis. Given your symptoms and the presence of liver enlargement, it may be helpful to consider a trial of antipyretic medication such as Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for fever and pain relief. Additionally, ensuring an adequate intake of fluids and rest is important for recovery. It is also recommended to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management, as persistent symptoms warrant a thorough assessment to rule out any underlying conditions that may require specific treatment.
