As far as i see in bloods there is low blood count( hb level) the term called anemia. It could be due to iron deficiency. Also there is no calcium or vitamin D levels in these test to tell you about bones.
I would recommend her an iron tablet one daily if she can tolerate it easily for atleast a month.

Thanks

Thank you Sir, and what about cholesterol?

Dear
I understand you must be worried about your mother’s health. Although it is very difficult to get into the core of the problem without knowing the symptoms and problems being faced by the patient, however after looking into the reports of your mother, there are two problems;
1. Low blood counts and haemoglobin, called anemia and it is likely due to deficiency of iron in her body. There are numbers us causes for this anemia and for that I can ask few questions from you but few questions are to be asked from your mother too in privacy.
Does she ever complained of pain in her upper or lower part of abdomen/tummy?
Any episode of bleeding from any part of the body like with stools, vomit etc
How is her appetite otherwise? Does she use meat regularly?
Has she ever been transfused with red blood?
Does she use painkillers like ponstan, brufen, artifen very often?
Getting the answer to these questions is very important to know the cause of low blood counts or anemia in her
Till that time you can have her treated with
Injection venofer by taking her into some hospital for 3 consecutive days
( 2 ampoules in 100 ml normal saline)

Get her stool for occult blood, renal profile, ultrasound abdomen and pelvis done and see a gynaecologist if there is some gynaecological problem.

2. The second problem is regarding raised total and LDL cholesterol
For that use diet that contains low fat and walk regularly, reduce weight if she is overweight

You can share all the reports and answer to my questions on zero three three three five five eight two eight nine two (Watsapp)

Wish her health
Regards
