General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for writing to HCM

I would advice you to take few tests to evaluate your problem. Blood tests: Thyroid profile, Hb level, peripheral smear, fasting glucose level ,post pandrial blood sugar and serum.electrolytes.

Same symptoms may occur in hypothyroidism, and anaemia.
I advice you to take Tab.Anofer daily once for 3 months. Do not skip meals. Do not Take heavy fatty diet. Take fruits and good amount of vegetables along with meals. Take iron rich diet such as goat's liver, dates, fig, and spinach.
Keep yourself hydrated with water and juice.

Consult a general physician in person with test reports for further management.

Regards.
