I've been taking ascoril syrup lately, and every time I use it, I get this shivering feeling throughout my body. When I checked my Fitbit, it showed my resting heart rate shot up to 108, whereas my usual resting heart rate is around 75. Do you think I should stop taking this medicine?

Question

I'm dealing with an upper respiratory tract infection and feeling really tired. Is a 98.8 temperature something to worry about when it comes to fever, or is it just part of the infection?

I've been feeling really off since last year when I had a viral fever around August. While the fever went away, my skin has been feeling unusually hot ever since, like all the time, even though I don't have an actual fever. It's making me feel weak and constantly tired, and it's been going on for over a year. I've seen several doctors but haven't found any relief. What could be causing this and what should I do next?

Question

I'm genuinely concerned about whether I should be taking Zenflox 200 as my doctor recommended. I had a fever and was feeling extremely cold due to the weather last night, but I'm feeling a bit better today. I noticed my urine is darker yellow though. The doctor said I have low BP and advised me to take ORS water along with Calpol for the fever. I looked up Zenflox 200 online and saw some potential side effects, which worries me. I don't have any stomach pain, mucus, cold, or coughjust the fever. What do you think?
