Please note that I am not a physician and cannot diagnose any medical condition. Even if I could, it would be imprudent to try and offer advice without a physical examination. There are many things that could be causing these problems from migraines to Meniere's disease. Since this problem has been going on for so long, almost three full weeks, it would be wise to go see your regular medical professional. If you can get a definative diagnosis, there may be natural remedies that could support your daughter as she heals. The fact that these symptoms began around the time she got a Hepatitis A shot may or may not be signficant. But, since the symptoms have gone on for 20 days, and may involve the brain and central nervous system, it is important to follow up with your regular healthcare professional.
