What Causes Pain In The Upper Abdomen After Having Dinner?

My niece who is 33 years old, had dinner and then she crouched down and had pain in her upper abdomen. She threw up and when she stood up, the pain was so strong she could not stand upright. She threw up and felt better after a bit. Now she said the pain is starting up again. We were comtemplating visiting the ER. Should we take her in, if the pain has subsided?
