Recent blood tests of my mother show some abnormal results, including RBC count of 5.22x1000000/microlitre, platelet count of 134x10000/microlitre (low), PDW of 14.7, fasting glucose of 114.5 mg/dL, ALT (SGPT) of 103.76 U/L (high), and AST (SGOT) of 50.73 U/L (high). She has been experiencing weakness in certain parts of her body, sweating on one side, and a feeling of inner restlessness. She is currently on medications for blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol, but has not received a clear diagnosis. Could you please advise on the possible cause of her symptoms and abnormal lab results, the course of treatment, and which specialist doctor she should consult next?
