Appears to have b12 deficiency, anemia and some nutritional deficiencies. Exact levels not mentioned. Since medications have been started recently, you should wait for about a fortnight for results. General measures like adequate rest, proper diet and exercise like walking with mind relaxing techniques like deep breathing, medication etc should be encouraged. After a fortnight if there is no relief, consult physician or same doctor for review and further investigations as necessary. Etilam if prescribed, may be continued. It may not be a permanent solution for sleeplessness.
