So, for the past few days, I've been dealing with this cold and fever, and my body keeps shivering. I've already taken some tablets like Cheston Cold and Combiflam, but I don't see any improvement. I'm kinda worried about it. Can you tell me what I should do next?

I've been feeling really dizzy when I stand up or turn around, and my blood pressure is at 11374 when I'm sitting. I've got asthma, fibromyalgia, and issues with low iron. A few weeks ago, I had a massive ear infection that landed me in the hospital with a high temperature and asthma problems. Now I'm also dealing with a cold and my asthma's acting up. Is it possible that my asthma or iron issues could be making my blood pressure lower than usual, since it's typically around 12080?

Hello...the b.p of 11374 is fine...it is not low to cause giddiness. Your giddiness could be due to anaemia as you mentioned iron issues, you will know it getting a complete blood picture done. Another reason for giddiness could be secondary to your ear infection.

Ive been dealing with a cough and cold for a few days and recently had a fever that went up to around 100.5F. It only lasted for a bit and went down after taking pcm. My doctor suggested a blood test and it turns out my ESR is at 40, though my hemoglobin and platelet count are normal. I'm confused and a bit worried about why my ESR is high. The doctor told me to take azithromycin for 5 days. Is there something serious going on with this high ESR?

It's indicates infection... Continue with antibiotic course

I'm feeling pretty rough since last night with this body ache. Now it's morning, and I'm dealing with the body ache, plus a headache and a slight fever. What medicine can I take to help? I want to mention that I'm allergic to floxacin.

-You can take paracetamol (500 mg) to reduce the fever, headache, and body acheone tablet every 68 hours as needed. Stay hydrated and rest. Since you're allergic to floxacin, avoid antibiotics without a doctor's consultation.
