Hello
Viral flu can very commonly result in multiple joint pains and myalgia, generalized weakness and fatigue. Also, the medications that were used like antibiotics and pain medications can also result in dizziness , weakness and may affect the sleep cycle to certain extent. They may cause sedation rather than sleeplessness. Drink plenty of water at least 2-3 lits, avoid sleeping during the daytime even when unwell. This may affect the sleep cycle resulting in excessive day time sleepiness. Eat a well balanced meal, plenty of fruits like orange, lime juice, coconut water, apple, crackers, yogurt, etc. Joint pains may be noticed on and off for a couple of weeks. If the symptoms persist even after 5-7 days from the start, please visit the doctor again for a detailed evaluation. Drink a hot glass of milk or eat a banana before going to sleep. Taking a hot shower may also be soothing. Wish you a speedy recovery!
