Hi,

Your daughter symptoms could be related to malabsorption or gluten intolerance.

For this reason, I would recommend performing a gut biopsy and antigliadin antibodies.

I would also recommend checking thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
Cardiologist
