Hello,

If a similar patient comes to my OPD, I would first inquire about a history of loss of consciousness and vomiting. as you tell she was fine, I hope there is nothing to worry. Just make sure that her daily activities is normal and she is playful.

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

Take care
