Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
She has history of breast cancer and it was treated by surgery and chemotherapy. Her weakness may be due to anemia or hypoglycemia or thyroid disease or some other problem. She should go for complete blood count, blood sugar test, thyroid function test first. These will help you to find the cause of weakness. Then she should take treatment according to cause.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
