Hi,
As you said that report s are fine. So not to worry. She is was suffering from diarrhea for a longtime so because of this GI track is little bit week. And because of low in intake of nutrients she/ he is feeling very week and having knee pain. For a time being give her/ him ensure protein or ensure high protein 2 tsp in a glass for milk or water daily.( If not diabetic) She will recover soon
