Dear friend, welcome to HCM.
from your description , it appears to be a developing paralysis.
side effect would not cause loss of movement on one side of the body.
is she fully alert or getting drowsy?
how old is she?
is she vommitting? headache?
sometimes conversion reactions may mimic paralysis, unconsciousness etc.
I think you should immediately see your treating neurologist to get her evaluated.
she needs admission and testing.
I hope to have answered your query satisfactorily.
Take care and please keep me informed of your progress.
Good Luck !
