General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

She may want to consider seeing her doctor or a psychiatrist for assessment and treatment..

He or she would want to rule out an organic cause for the the symptoms. This means blood tests to rule out other causes.

There are medications that may be able to help with her symptoms. They would not have to be long term but would likely be required for at least 6 months.

I hope this helps
