How do I adjust faster to a physically demanding job?

It's been like 15 years since I had a job. I've worked off and on doing web design for my sister but that's sitting at my desk. Before that my last job was working in a food processing place where I was always moving and pushing/pulling large loads. I was also power lifting back then.
Now I have a new job working in a warehouse. I help unload trucks, stack boxes, etc. Its so fast paced. I get a horrible headache, exhausted, thirsty, sweaty, dizzy, sore, and my fingers don't want to work.
Now that I'm older and from pregnancy I have carpal tunnel in my hands and vein insufficiency in my legs.
I've had about 1 week at this job so far. It scares me how sick I feel while I'm working. How can I adjust faster and start feeling stronger?
