No one here can give you advice as we can't know what the problem is. Go to your doctor. that's what they are for.

This is good, ignore the things you cannot eat, but there seems to be a good mix here!
But I would also recommend you see your doctor as there could be other issues!

I'm very worried for you as you may well have lost significant amount of blood and really should seek medical help.

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this: Sorry, giving or asking for medical advice is not permitted on this forum as it’s not what this site is about. While discussing medical insurance policies, cheaper ways to see consultants, cashback for alternative health treatments and how to get specific medication cheaper (legally) are all perfectly acceptable we ask you specifically not to discuss what to do in the event of certain medical problems (please see this rule on the Health Board).
