As much as I enjoy participating in this forum, this is a question too complex, and too potentially dangerous, to address only here. Your daughter needs to see a physician as soon as possible. There are a number of things that can cause such symptoms, and in many cases an exact cause is never found. However, events like this need a thorough workup. In our area such patients would likely see a neurologist.

Best wishes,
