Help for my daughter

14 yo suffers from excruciating unilateral jaw pain, severe unilateral facial swelling and extreme unilateral eye pain with exercise, fast walking, jogging or playing volleyball/basketball. Any ideas what could be causing this? The last episode involved loss of vision for 10 minutes.  I am frightened and no one seems to know what is wrong with her.

well, it radiates to her ear canal and is only triggered with exercise and sports.  The fact that her face, eye swell and turn red along with severe eye pain i am truly not sure what is happening.  It is getting some attention finally ONLY because today while playing basketball, it happened again but she lost her vision completely.  She is set up for a treadmill and hopefully more tests.  It is the most bizarre thing to ever see.  Thank you for your comment!!!!
