I’ve been dealing with respiratory flu (self-diagnosed) for 6 days. I’m getting better but now sporadically cough up phlegm, feel weak and tired, and have puffy and dry eyes. Could this be a reaction to the cough medicine I tried, Theraflu, which caused discomfort in my eyes?

I have a throbbing sensation on my left side of the head just above the ear. I had flu 3 weeks ago and fever, and 2 weeks ago I had 2 seizures on the same day. My MRI and other tests were negative, and I have high blood pressure which is under control through medication. What can be the cause of this throbbing sensation?

I work as an EMT and had a blood sugar reading of 11.6 mmol approximately an hour after eating lunch, which dropped to 8.8 mmol an hour later. I had a sugary drink with lunch. I have noticed increased urination, frequent headaches, dizziness, and heart palpitations, but no definitive diagnosis. Is this normal, and should I be concerned about diabetes?

What are the signs of a damaged Vagus Nerve affecting the bowel and stomach, and could I be suffering from hypochlorhydria? My symptoms include cold chills, cold skin, trembling, heavy aching in the abdomen 2-3 hours after eating, worsening symptoms 4-5 hours after eating, dizziness, and occasional loss of muscle sensation. I have been on ulcer medication without relief and have seen a gastrointestinal specialist who suggested it might be a nerve problem. I have had negative CT scan results for inflammation and GERD. Could a nerve-related issue like gastroparesis or slow motility due to permanent nerve damage be causing these symptoms? How long does food typically take to move into the intestine area?
