Hi,
Low grade fever since long time presenting with weakness, headache and loss of vision in both eyes could be an immune reaction. It is most probably an auto immune disease.
I would require if any reports are available to comment more on her condition.
She can continue with Vit B12 and vit D in the mean time, which can help improve her hematological, neurological and musculoskeletal system.
Loss of appetite and weakness could be due to these deficiency.
If more details are given, I can help you more.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
