She has trouble sleeping, and usually towards mid afternoon she has headaches, back pain, arm numbness, and swollen, red, hot knees.
Any advice anyone can give us in helping her cope with this would be greatly appreciated.

I am so sorry you have not had more of a response to your post! I suggest you try re-posting it in the Chronic Pain forum, as it seems more active than this one. (Of course, we all hope that your daughter's pain does not become chronic!)
Good luck to both of you.
