What Could Cause Severe Lethargy After Cauterizing Nose For Severe Nosebleed After Intake Of Calamari Capsules?

I've been taking mega dose of calamari/krill capsules and started getting nose bleeds which stopped after a while, however I had a severe nose bleed on Monday which landed me in emergency with fainting and vomitting blood clots. I have had my nose cauterized and the doctor said I will be ok, however I'm feeling very lethargic which is abnormal for me.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You have been using calamari a good source of omega 3 fatty acids. It also contains D.H.A. accounts for 40% of the contents.
It also has a central stimulant action, by which it may increase the B.P. hence may cause the bleeding, nasal and gastric.
I advise you to consult a gastro enterologist for diagnosis and treatment to treat the erosions of the gastric mucosa by bleeding.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms omeprazole, domperidone, and sucralfate gel to form a layer on the surface of the gastric mucosa for protection.
Avoid taking spices, junk foods, and oily foods.
Stop taking the Calamari.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
