UC n cancer risk and hemoglobin deficien

My mother was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in 2023. She underwent partial colon surgery and received 8 cycles of CAPOX chemotherapy. The following year, due to hemoglobin deficiency, a colonoscopy was done — and stomal ulcer and ulcerative colitis (UC) were detected. She has been under treatment for the past year. But again, her hemoglobin has dropped from 11 to 9.8 and is increasing very slowly. My questions: 1. Can this type of ulcerative colitis turn into cancer? 2. Can this type of ulcerative colitis cause hemoglobin to fluctuate even during treatment?

Struggling to lose weight as well.
