Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Certain drugs ( antibiotics ) , azithromycin is one of them, develops hyper acidity in stomach , if taken by mouth ( orally).
Since you took this drug and develops gastritis.
This gastritis produce stomach pain ,vomiting,loss of appetite.
Gastritis causes pain in diaphragm ( just above & over stomach).
All these symptoms are sufficient to develop fatigue in a patient, same thing happened with you.

Bland diet with milk 50 ml 4-5 times in day will give you relief.
Rest 2-3 days also good.
Hope I have answered your query.
If further any question I will help.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
