Brief Answer:
Zofran should help with the nausea, but you may need a script

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to HCM. Sorry to hear about your troubles, please not that she can take Zofran, now that may need a prescription, also note that Benadryl has anti-emetic effects and that may help with her symptoms. Please note that if her breathing gets worse and she develops a temperature/chills she needs to be seen by a doctor. I hope this helps and good luck.
