Child's Heart Sporadically Beats Extremely Hard And Fast When Relaxing, Gets Tired Easily. Cause?
My daughter is five years old. The past few months, her heart sporadically beats extremely hard and fast. I can feel it hitting my hand when I touch her chest and it beats so fast, I can t even count the beats. It even happens when she s sitting and relaxing. Lately she s been getting tired easily, but she s also very active. What could be causing this and how serious do you think it is? She has a doctor s appointment in two weeks.
Hi,
There is a condition called supra ventricular tachycardia where heart I'll suddenly beat rapidly and after few hours will come down.
The doctor should see her when this is happening as it is intermittant.
Otherwise she may need a holter monitor.
There are medicines for this condition!
All the best
