any is wrong here. Anymore, which is one word in this case, would work.
Is ANY the same as ANY MORE? If not, what does it mean? Can I omit it without change of meaning?

Anymore and any are different but related.
The word any corresponds with some. Any is used to describe the negative, and some describes the positive. Example: I have
some money/I don't have
any money.
Anymore often corresponds with lately in a similar manner. Example: I don't feel ill
anymore/ I've been feeling well
lately
