Brief Answer:
Approach an Immunologist.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
All the symptoms may not fit into a symptom complex of a disease a few times.
There can be complications arising out of the symptoms complex of a disease. There can be single or more than one cause sometimes, a disease leading to more complications quickly.
I see there is dry skin, dry eye, dry mouth for your mother which are more related to autoimmune diseases or Lupus or scleroderma.
I suggest meeting a reputed Immunologist with Internal Medicine who can help understand the nature of the disease and fit into one or multiple causes.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
