Kindly elaborate on parameters you are referring to? Weakness after the viral infection is natural .keep yourself well hydrated if non-diabetic have fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. I would suggest taking the multivitamin capsule (multivite gold /a2z) for the next 2 weeks 1capsule per day basis. Hope it helps. Do keep a check on your blood pressure if low (less than 100/60) nondiabetics can take ors (1 satchet in 1litre water to be consumed within 24 hrs. Hope it helps.
