DEFINITELY.....,: Your daughter needs to have a thorough physical exam with emphasis to neurological examination. Metabolic causes also needs to be looked into including possible deficiency of micro-nutrients / vitamins. A detail family history is important part in the management. Lab. Works might be needed. Please make an appointment with her pediatrician. Good luck!

Unusual symptoms: Yes i would definitely see your physician. It may be necessary to ultimately see a pediatric neurologis but first talk to your physician.
