I dont know if the hits or heat is doing this to me just so tired 13 hrs a night I usually have and just feel crappy like fatigue ????
Brief Answer:
You need to drink much much water!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these incidences that you have reported. Your symptoms are suggestive of low blood volume. This is common in hot environments when insufficient amount of water is consumed. This will result in a low blood pressure followed by symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, light headache, etc. I will suggest that you make a conscious effort to drink as much water as possible. You should urinate ay leaf thrice in a day and of good volumes to be sure that you are drinking enough. I will start with a routine of at least 3liters daily and increase or decrease accordingly. When the blood volume would be restored, the fatigue and light headaches will all get resolved.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

I just dont wanna die from blood clot or something. .but if u think itll be ok then im happy with that .

Brief Answer:
You are fine! Bleeding cannot have very minimal symptoms!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Please, stop googling. They say many unnecessary stuffs.
You are good. If you had bled into your head, it would have had more severe symptoms of severe headache, blurry vision, and probably other neurological symptoms. Be relaxed and you are good. Continue and unless something else comes up, there is no need to seek for further aggressive medical intervention.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up if you ahem any further doubts.
