Suggest Remedy For Occasional Inability To Walk

My friend, a female 58 yrs. old, has had thyroid removed. Now has occasional inability to walk, or remain conscious at times. Medical people treating her seem unable to decide what to do for her.She eventually seems to mostly recover, but it comes back at times. I'd guess, as a layman, that it may be due to some type of hormone loss due to the missing thyroid. It was removed a few years ago because she then experienced bulging eye problems due to thyroid irregularities. What likely could be done?
