Neurologist 's  Response
Hello,

First of all, if your daughter could have either infection or allergic reaction.

Therefore, she should do ESR, CBC, and C-reactive protein. If the results of these investigations were negative, she should go to an immunologist for further investigations.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dr/Mustafa, Neurologist
