Lucy, I can’t really say what the problem is without being able to examine her. It might be that she has lost a lot of electrolytes and that this is causing spasms of the oesophagus. The best would be to take her to the doctor and to have him do some blood tests. In the mean time you can consider giving her rehydration fluid like Rehydrat®. Good luck.
