Hello.
I am sorry to hear that, at this juncture it would be important to get an endoscopy of her upper GI to find the cause for the sore stomach and the pain.
The enlargement of her lymph nodes could be related to an infection as well so a CT abdomen can be chosen much later if a blood analysis does not reveal any specific cause.
Best wishes
