Dear friend,
Thanks for your query. I appreciate your concerns.
You have not mentioned whether there is swelling over face, within the abdomen; whether she has burning sensation while passing urine; passing less urine.
From the details provided by you, have her kidneys checked up for chronic infection (called Pyelonephritis); Also, get a Chest x-ray done for tuberculosis, and blood for malaria, as she has fever everyday.
I suggest that you get these investigations done and then consult a Nephrologist (Kidneys specialist) who knows what would be best for your mother.
I am sure that you will benefit from the advice
Have a speedy recovery and a good health
