What Causes Severe Headaches Along With Fatigue And Dizziness?

Yesterday and last Friday I spent approx. 6 hrs painting a sign indoors. About halfway through the day I opened the window on both days, but not sure if I opened it soon enough or wide enough because last night and today I am experiencing a bad headache fatigue and little bit of dizziness. I have taken today off work to rest but must go back tomorrow. The paint job is done and I will not be exposed further. The paint was water-borne exterior paint. Should I worry and see my doctor, or will I be ok?

Hi thanks for asking question.
The dizziness might be because of simple hypoglycemia or hypotension.You might have not eaten anything during work and dizziness so felt because of it.
During work at every 5 to 6 hour some food should taken like fruits or biscuits.
Measure your blood pressure , if low salty diet taken.
Secondly overexertion may lead to dizziness along with if less sleep.
So take adequate rest with maximum 8 to 10 hour working.
Sometime dizziness might be idiopathic.
Sometime it could be labyrinthitis infection if deafness and ear ache is associated.
If still cause not clear according to physical examination further work up done
I find this answer helpful
