See your doctor: You should not have symptoms one week after. See your doctor asap.

See Your Doctor: Typically, heat illness starts resolving once the body is cooled and rehydrated. If you are still having symptoms a week later, you may have done more than you realized. I would recommend getting checked out and some blood work. Continued or re-exposure to heat can prolong recovery.
