Thank you for following up. She has tachycardia. We have variety of causes:
1. Reaction to Pain- syndrome.Because children with Gillian Barre often feel back pain, painful tingling, muscle pain and pain in the head and neck relating to irritation of the brain.
2.Dysfunction of autonomic nervous system, which is involved in the control of heart rate and blood pressure, is affected in two thirds of people with Guillain-Barré syndrome.Twenty percent may experience severe blood pressure fluctuations and irregularities in the heart beat.
3.Other associated problems are heart failure, heart muscle disease (cardiomyopathy), tumors, or infections.
4.Hyperfunction of thyroid gland
5.Anemia( low hemoglobin)
You should take your child to a cardiologist, get im examined(blood test for hemoglobin, ECG,ultrasound) and abyde by doctor prescriptions.
In addition follow diet riched potassium:carrots, raisins, apricot, potato and etc.
Take care
Best regards
