reason of your fatigue is obvious. after viral infection like dengue its normal that you feel fatigue. you are transfused blood for low hb. and platelets transfusion is just bcoz you may have low platelets which is very common in dengue. in dengue mill pleural effusion occurs some times and it is the cause for cough. however fever is unexplainable. take paracetamol for temporary releif. but if you stull have fever after 8 hours then consult doctors. may be you need some more treatment.
