Get checked..: It is possible this is an exacerbation of her PANDAS and that could be due to a strep infection. So, have her seen and get a throat culture to see if she has strep throat that needs antibiotic treatment. If you think it could be seizure, go to the nearest emergency room and have her checked. Hope she feels better real soon!

Pediatric neurology: Would recommend immediate visit to pediatric neurologist. Have concerns regarding focal brain involvement, and as has been mentioned, even focal seizure activity. Do NOT delay, and indeed consider visit to ER, if more efficient.
