Based on the information, her symptoms are likely to be related to mental stress. As of now, she has got some treatment and is sleeping. If the symptoms recur or persist for longer, please get a psychiatrist to evaluate her. In addition, please get a CT scan of the brain done to rule out any brain problem such as stroke, which sometimes, can get triggered by mental stress.
