Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir!

Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

I understand your concern.Flu generally leaves our body very weak and our body needs time to recover.

You will be fine gradually and get back to normal sleep cycle soon.For now you just need to eat healthy and sleep well.Try taking vitamin B capsules for strength.Drink a lot of water,juices,raw fruits and green leafy vegetables.

Hope this helps.Feel free to ask more.
