hi..
thanks for using HCM..
your sister has multiendocrinal problems with autoimmune diseases..
see your endocrinologist..come work up of hormones is required and hormonal supplements are required..
your sister has hypothyriodism due to hashimotos thyrioditis, thyroxin supplementation along with other hormones replacement is needed..
consult also a psychiatrist for the evaluation and treatment..
all the very best..
