Excessive muscle pain

Just looking for advice. My daughter (8) has recently started to complain that she "hurts all over". Mainly around her ribs, back and neck. She started gymnastics 6 weeks ago, training for one hour each week.

I brushed it off as muscular due to doing a new activity, but when watching her she's frequently rubbing her neck, she groans when turning in her sleep, and I watched her struggle to get off the loo this morning - a bit like I would if I'd done 100 squats.

Should I be worried? I can't get a gp app for 3 weeks. Previous history is an unknown neurological condition meaning she cannot cry and has a very high pain tolerance (3 previous fractures with hardly any symptoms). She was hospitalised last year due to chronic anaemia but no problems since.
