Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you should start vit B 12 injection and antibiotics as your MRI report suggest demylination and sinusitis. Consult pediatric neurologist about prognosis. You have to get done follow up MRI after treatment so see improvement in demylination. If it persist you need to investigate her further for auto immune as well as neurological disease. So consult pediatric neurologist and discuss these things.
