What Causes Headache, Nausea And Fainting While Having Anxiety?

my 16 year old daughter is having headaches, nausea and even passed out a few times. they have done blood test, heart test, lung test so far all good. her background....we lost my husband/her father to cancer 2 yrs ago. my daughter is very much grieving and also diagnosed with ptsd from caretaking etc. she is on 25 ml of zolaf to help with anxiety but symptoms came before the meds. Any ideas of what to do next would be great.

yes your daughter seems to be undergoing severe grief and ptsd . all her symptoms are due to same. she needs to be treated . in my opinion you should consult her doctor and if required increase the dose of zoloft also if she wish ,she could take some therapy sessions. it would help her to overcome the situation and handle it in a better way.
