An 82-year-old female has extremely low energy, with symptoms beginning on 2/6. She has had two doctor visits and one ER visit, with all lab tests coming back normal. She drinks 60 oz of water daily but eats very little. She is on multiple medications including Sotalol, Carvedilol, Hydrochlorothiazide, Lasartan, Amlodipine, Metformin, Ranitidine, Doxazosin, Atorvastatin, Rinitidine, Trazodone (as needed), and Baclofen. She has a medical history of a kidney removed due to cancer in 2004, diverticulitis with left side colon removal in 2007, and a defibrillator implanted in 2015. What could be causing her low energy, and what additional tests should be considered?
