My daughter's hb 5gm/dl, feeling exhausted very often, even while reading, feeling sleepy, muscle pain, tired always. What to do to improve? Her t3/t4/tsh count also normal (1.08/7.12/1.60 respectively).

She is severely anemic. It's better you get her admitted. She would need to be given blood transfusion or iron replacement therapy. Once she is improved you should consult a hematologist to find out the cause for this.
