Hello,
It is possible to be stomach flu but I need to know more about symptoms like if she has vomiting or diarrhea?
I suggest you consult with your doctor because fever is high after 5 days. Meantime I suggest to Drink plenty of fluids. Stick with bland foods to reduce stress on her digestive system.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
