Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Low immunity can cause such infections. Taking proteinaceous diet and vitamin supplements will be helpful. Anaemia should be corrected by taking Iron, b12 and vitamin c supplements. Thyroid profile should be checked to rule out hypothyroidism. If it is hypothyroidism then taking thyroxine supplements will be helpful to normalize your cholesterol levels. For fungal infection taking fluconazole tablet weekly once for 1 month will be helpful. You can also use ketoconazole soap. It is also better to do hiv duo test if you had any history of risky unprotected sex or blood transfusion.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
