What Causes Headache And Stomach Ache In A Child?

My daughter is 6 years old, has an appetite (although slightly decreased) but food is not tasting good anymore, she has lost 6 lbs, and has occasional headache & stomach pain that is sometimes accompanied with a fever of about 101-102. Her energy is starting to slightly decrease as well. What are the possibilities as to what may be going on?
