Fatigue: If you've gotten your period it's unlikely that you are pregnant, but to find out take a pregnancy test. You may just be fatigued from not getting enough sleep combined with a recent respiratory infection you mention. Take care!

URI: You may be having upper respiratory tract infection. It could start with a viral infection during cold season with flu-like symptoms as you are experiencing. Keep yourself warm and hydrated by drinking warm milk, soups and fluids cotaining vitamin c, such as oj. At bed time, gargle with luke-warm salt water to disinfect ; soothen your throat. If your cough is dry, you may use otc cough syrups.
