Is my following sentences grammatical? Has the phrase in bold been rightly put?

2- Last week My health was not well for the last two days.

3- for the last two days last week My health was not well.

1. I wasn't well for the last two days of last week. (I don't know what days these would be. Different countries start their weeks on a different day). Note that your health can be "good", but not "well". It is you that are "well" or not.
2. - see 1.
3. - see 2.

I would say:
"I was not well on Saturday and Sunday last week."
"My health was not good.... "

Can I say the following? I mean in what positions I should use the preposition phrase.

- I was not well for two days last week.

- Last week I was not well for two days.

- For two days last week I was not well.

1- My health was not [STRIKE]well[/STRIKE] good for the last two days of last week.

2- Last week, my health was not [STRIKE]well[/STRIKE] good for the last two days.

3- For the last two days of last week, my health was not [STRIKE]well[/STRIKE] good.

Please look carefully at my corrections above. You need to take more care with your capitalisation and punctuation.

Remember this:
Your health can be good/great/excellent or bad/awful/terrible.
You are either well or not well.
