Have you checked her crop? Can you smell her breath? Is it sour smelling? If she is slinging her head from side to side and throwing up she may either have sour crop or an impacted crop. Do a search and see if the symptoms match what you are describing.

If it is either there are several remedies that have been posted, including crop massage and things to give that can help loosen the impaction.

Best wishes and keep us posted.
