Hello

Your wife seems to be facing multiple issues with weight gain and endocrine evaluation is required.

She needs to get he blood pressure checked.

Then let her get blood sugar checked. Also check TSH as thyroid hormone is a reason for weight gain.

Weight gain leads to tiredness and other problems. Above suggested evaluation should help to arrive at a diagnosis and thus help us to treat.
