Maybe: You are probably light headed because of dehydration. You could be restless as a side effects to over the counter cold medications. You could try drinking some gatoraid to help with dehydration. You could also call your doctor or see one, he or she can examine you and make more specific recommendations. If you're not better soon, i would see someone.

Probably: By '24 hour flu' i'm assuming poor appetite with nausea and possibly vomiting/diarrhea. Most of your symptoms could be attributed to dehydration however, if they last for more than another 24 hours you should see a doctor.

If it persists: It would be helpful to know if you have other associated symptoms (fever, chills, loss of appetite, stiff neck, sensitivity to light or sound, nausea or vomiting, etc). If not, suspect that you are still feeling the effects of a viral illness and will recover uneventfully in the near future. If not, see your family doctor.
