Urgently need a medical certificate.
I had a prolonged period last year of illness which resulted from an unknown viral fever, dengue, and also lead to further complications. It lasted 6-8 months and continued into this year as well. I need a medical certificate for this to claim academic compensation. I will provide proofs of my illness and the format of the letter. Preferably from a doctor in Pune, but I'll manage if it's not possible. I need it by today itself. Thank you.
Rabies pep required?
I am previously vaccinated 10 to 11 years ago . Yesterday night I was standing at quite a distance from a tree (atleast 4 feet) and I could hear some bats deep inside the tree but I couldn't see them. When wind blew a singular very tiny droplet somehow touched my lip and it was cold and thin. I couldn't even feel the drop when I put my fingers on the lip. Am I being paranoid about rabies or does this warrant a pep?I washed my lips within 10 mins with soap and I wiped it off immediately.

Health issue
Problems started after 2021.Three months after my grandfather's death, I felt as if I had a serious illness.I felt unbalanced which is still ongoing, although I have never fallen till date. Sometimes, when I wake up from sleep, it feels as if there is some wave going on behind my ears.If there is any small problem, I think too much.I just had gallbladder surgery two months ago. Whenever I use the phone, I don't feel anything like this.If I leave the phone, then I get that strange feeling of imbalance, a strange, sick feeling.There is pain in the head through the neck and the shoulders also feel heavy.After the surgery, there is fatigue in the hands and legs and a feeling of cold waves anywhere in the body at any time. Initially, I used to feel nervous , anxious, now I have become a little used to it. But even now, when I feel like this, I don't feel like doing any work. there is anger and a lot of irritability I feel like staying alone, I don't want to talk to anyone.
