Sorry for what you are going through. If you have given the daughters age that would have been little helpful.
In this case main precautions you have to take is dietary changes.
Avoid junk, spicy food and excessive fat food this all will cause more symptomatic.
Let her try more of salads, fruits and leafy vegetables more of fiber diet with excess of water. That will help in better changes in the symptoms.
An ultrasound abdomen pelvis will give an over view of any pathology responsible for the above cause. CT computer tomography will help definitive diagnostic tool ( if more symptomatic). Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.

Thank you for your help. She is 5. Symptoms began in may of 2014. Random vomitting followed by sleep. Episode lasting 1-3 hours total including sleep. Episode 1x per month. Diagnosis in mid august by ped and 2nd opinion confirmed by ped gastro after xray. No mri or ct. No meds due to frequency of symptoms. Dr rec motrin as preventative if possible. My concern is that the symptoms have changed. Over 2 weeks. 1 week, vomit, sleep then nausea for 5 days. 2 week, high fever, then "stinging in tummy". Concerned about random fever and stingign tummy, new symtoms. Just wondering if i need to go back to ped or specialist or if these are normal symptoms. Eveything i read is that fever is not indicator of migraine and short duration is not indicator of migraine either. Stinging tummy is only lasting about 20 min 2 or 3x after eating. Let me kmow what you think....when you can. Thank you so much!!
Brief Answer:
needs further investigation.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for the history.
After going through the history and present symptoms, it seems like there is some infective / inflammatory cause in the GIT - gastrointestinal tract.
I would recommend you to see the gastroenteritis specialist for further evaluation.
As what treatment you are giving now is symptomatic - its better to evaluate the cause and treat accordingly.
As fever 24 hr as you said and frequent vomiting need to assess.
If possible get an ultrasound abdomen for gross over view of abdomen and treated accordingly.
Take care. Wish you good health.
For any query please followup. Good luck.
