Hello. : Hello. I suggest getting a thermometer. If her temp is 104 or above, recommend she get medical care. If her resting pulse is elevated or she feels dizzy or lightheaded upon standing, these are signs that she may be dehydrated and may need intravenous hydration. Most of the things i would recommend require being able to swallow and to hold something down. However, medical acupuncture can aid this type of emesis greatly.
