Hello dear, welcome to HCM forum.

This may be a feature of viral hepatitis. Kindly get her examined with your doctor. Severe lassitude, nausea, vomiting, anorexia etc are features suggestive of viral hepatitis. This may be associated with yellowish discoloration of eyes and urine.

If confirmed, this will need supportive treatment for 4-6 weeks which includes bed rest, light diet rich in fruits and veges, enough fluids etc. Your doctor will guide in this.
Hope this answer will help.
Thank you.
