What Causes High Fever, Black Spots In Visual Field And Headache?

My daughter (10) has had a high fever today, which we are controlling by alternating ibuprophen and Tylenol. She is now complaining that when she stands up, she randomly gets black spots popping around in her visual field and gets a bad headache on the top of her head. She hasn t felt like eating and has been drinking water when she s awake. Her fever first started yesterday afternoon with a headache.

While this could just be the flu, with the headache and the vision problems she may have meningitis and for that reason she needs to see a doctor now
