Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think expect taking iron replacement therapy you should find out the cause of anemia. The fatigue is due to anemia.
You also should check thyroid function.
You may also suffer from hypothyroidism .
Also do a complete blood count and biochemical bilanc.
For arthritis pain you can take NSAID and corticosteroid injection as advised by your doctor.
