Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor service'.
I have reviewed your query and below is my advise.

The underlying cause for weakness should be searched and treated accordingly.
For primary work up you can investigate with blood sugar estimation to rule out hypoglycemia.
Your blood pressure is within normal range so no need to check it.

It's advisable to investigate further with..
_serum electrolytes like sodium, pottasium, calcium estimation
_Full CBC
_sgot, sgpt to rule out liver diseases
_urea, creatinine, egfr estimation to rule out kidney disease
_serum TSH estimation to rule out thyroid problem

If needed than your doctor will suggest NCV, ANA estimation like higher investigation to reach up to diagnosis.
No single diagnosis can be given in your case as per provided history.
According to the cause specific treatment plan decided.

Meanwhile multivitamin tablet can be taken for your fatigue.
If dizziness more than Otological ear examination and EKG needs to be done.

You can discuss all these with your treating physician.

Hope I have answered your question.

I would be happy to help you further if needed.
