Presumably Menopause (Anemia, Anxiety)

Question

Asked for Female, 48 Years

My mom is 48 y/o. For 5 wks now she's been experiencing these symptoms: Swollen right foot (but went away) Extreme fatique and weakness Loss of appetite Shortness of breath Sensitivity to sounds (feel like losing mind) Twitching muscles Blood results came back saying she is anemic. Doc said hers is 11 and normal is 14? So they referred her to psychiatrist because they don't think anemia could make her feel so terrible. She wakes up at 5 am everyday feeling faint. What do u think?
