Reason of your fatigue is obvious. After viral infection like dengue its normal that you feel fatigue. You are transfused blood for low he. and platelets transfusion is just BCO you may have low platelets which is very common in dengue. In dengue mill pleural effusion occurs sometimes, and it is the cause for cough. However fever is unexplainable. Take paracetamol for temporary relief. But if your still have fever after 8 hours then consult doctors. maybe you need some more treatment.
