Concerning symptoms: Thank you for caring so much about your young sister. I am worried about the things you describe here. Sounds like something neurologic, where the systems that control the basic functions of your body, or something cardiac (to do with the heart) could be going on. Please encourage your parents to have her seen by a pediatrician very soon.
