What Causes Severe Fatigue Along With Dizziness?

All week I ve felt run down like I was going to get sick. Had dull headache/fatigue. Nothing more. Yesterday was so exhausted I slept all day. Today I was at a store and felt my feet/legs get hot and then started to feel dizzy/faint. Left store and got into car. Face extremely pale. Went home layer down, elevated feet, chugged 3 glasses of water and had some raisins. After 2 hours I am still dizzy after I stand. What should I do?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Headache, fatigue, exhaustion all could be due to iron deficiency.
I suggest you to get complete blood counts and iron studies to know the status of iron and iron stores in body.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
