Get evaluation: Best to seek medical evaluation with primary care provider to start. Multiple possibilities--and the only way to decide on course of evaluation is to start with basics. Physical exam, blood work, etc will be needed to start the process to determine direction of further action. Do this soon, and you are correct to be concerned. Do not let your daughter diminish the importance of her symptoms.
