Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, you had fever for 8 days, and had the medicines, probably with the little or no food.
It appears that you have developed the gastric irritation. So you might be taking normal food with spices, and it has caused more irritation.
I advise you to consult your doctor, for diagnosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine, domperidone, and antacid gel. advise to take coconut water or oral electrolytes to recover form the weakness.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
