See doc soon: Something is going on, that's for sure. Hard to say without an exam. See the doc soon! (today or tomorrow) If fever, constant pain, frequent vomiting, or anything else scary, go to an ER now.

Many possibilities: Your daughter could have gastritis, stress induced, allergic or inflammatory, allergic eosinophilic esophagitis with incompetent lower esophageal sphincter, the valve that keeps food in the stomach) leading to reflux (with heartburn) and vomiting. These are just a few possibilities. She needs medical attention as soon as possible.
