Hi,
First of all, if your daughter had not any diseases, she would have a psychiatric disease such as:severe stress. You should ask her about her feelings about you, her father, her school and her classmates.
However, this does not mean we can exclude a systemic illnesses, because a viral infection can cause a headache and a low grade fever, so your daughter should do CBC.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
