Brief Answer: complete blood count to be done Detailed Answer: Hello XXXXXXX For the digestion problem, your mother can take simple antacids like Capsule Omez or Pantoprazole on empty stomach. I usually prescribe my patients these. The shivering, cold and temperature of 99 needs further evaluation in the form of Complete Blood Count (CBC), along with widal test to rule out typhoid and peripheral smear to rule out malaria. Hope this helps. Regards,
